AI code generation reality check: What the data says about shipping AI code safely
AI shifted the bottleneck from writing code to understanding it. A new survey of 309 engineering leaders and practitioners reveals a stark gap: nearly 80% of organizations are using AI to write code, but a third haven’t shipped it to production. The barrier is visibility and control into what’s actually changing.

What you’ll learn:
- Why productivity gains are outpacing review capacity, and what to do about it
- The hardest-to-detect AI code changes that trigger production incidents — security, dependencies, performance
- How AI-generated code has become a concern for security, legal, compliance, and the C-suite
- Why 76% of leaders now consider AI risk tooling critical, and what they’re buying
- The five things high-performing teams do differently
