The Hidden Dangers of AI in Coding

The Hidden Dangers of AI in Coding

Good morning everyone!

Generative AI is transforming software development at all levels—just ask any senior engineer or computer science student. In this week's iteration, you will learn about some of the security, maintainability, and intellectual propriety risks associated with using generative AI coding tools. And you will learn how to overcome those risks to produce higher-quality code while avoiding mundane tasks. Read more here or watch the video now:
