AI tools have become a standard part of how software gets built. Code assistants, RAG pipelines, LLM-powered features—they’re everywhere. And as teams integrate AI into software engineering workflows, a quiet problem has been building: most teams aren’t treating AI-assisted development with the same security rigor they’d apply to everything else. A thread on r/devsecops put…
