It's insane that rational thought, even in engineering orgs, is out the window in favor of AI hype.

AI changes the Quality/Time tradeoff. As anyone with a even a little engineering background knows, that means you can,

  * Cut time to get the same shitty software quality
    with unlimited bugs that we're accustomed to

  * In the same time, increase quality and make
    actually secure software.

How much time does it now take, using AI, to make 'High Assurance' software? Provably correct components? Other quality measures that were once out of reach? etc.

And the capability of AI-resourced attackers makes higher-quality software necessary.
