"Recent research shows that 42% of the code produced by developers is AI-assisted in some way, rising to 65% by 2027, with 72% of those who use AI tools relying on them daily."
"While AI can write code faster than humans, it's also error prone. It's been reported that AI code contains 1.7x more bugs overall than human code, including critical and major issues."
"Even the best AI coding agent doesn't understand your application's risk context, standards, or threat landscape, so there's no easy way to prevent errors from occurring."
"Rather than pushing them out, vibe coding has arguably made SAST solutions even more important. Vibe coding plays into cultures of speed, encouraging developers to quickly accept AI-generated code."
Vibe coding is growing quickly, with a significant portion of code being AI-assisted. Despite this, trust in AI outputs is low, leading to continued reliance on SAST tools for security. Experts argue that AI's speed may render static scans obsolete, but AI-generated code is often more error-prone. The lack of understanding of application context by AI contributes to systemic issues. SAST remains crucial for identifying vulnerabilities and errors, countering claims that vibe coding diminishes its importance.
