The AI Blind Spot: Why "It Works" Isn't the Same as "It's Safe to Launch"

A recent trend of using AI coding assistants has led to a common issue: launching applications without considering security. AI tools can create working products quickly, but they often overlook essential security checks. This can result in vulnerabilities such as exposed API keys, debug logs, and default admin usernames. To avoid this, developers must understand the code and perform thorough security checks before launching an application. This requires more than just using AI tools, but also human oversight and attention to detail.
