As much as I advocate for human written code, we should also acknowledge that AI has gotten way more competent recently, esp. on the coding front. I think security and vulnerability scanning, (maybe together with code review?), should be the few valid uses of AI.

(And obviously, the human using the AI should confirm the vulnerabilities themselves first before handing it to the maintainers)
