AI-based coding assistants can inadvertently generate insecure code patterns, reuse vulnerable libraries, or bypass secure coding practices.
AAIA highlights security vulnerabilities as the primary risk because insecure code can lead to:
Data breaches
Injection attacks
Authentication bypasses
Supply chain compromise
Privilege escalation
Excessive reliance (A) affects productivity but not security.
Human bias (B) is possible but not as severe as security flaws.
Training complexity (D) is not a risk to AI system integrity.
Therefore, the introduction of security vulnerabilities is the greatest risk.
