I've said it a few times, and I will keep saying it. Especially for the anti-AI crowd. Sure, you don't want it to write your code, fine, not bothered at all, but review your code for serious security flaws, and enhancing security audits? You definitely want AI there. I foresee the next few years we will see all sorts of companies, sites, and critical infrastructure being hacked. Heck, we're already seeing more and more of this. It's not going to end very well. If your company is sleeping on its cyber security, tomorrow isn't when you want to deal with it, but get on it before you can.
I say this purely as a Software Engineer, not a security expert, but you have to consider hackers can, are, and will use AI against you.
The Mexican government was hacked by people using Claude[0] this was apparently many government systems and services, all that PII for everyone in the country in these systems. Even if Claude somehow "patches" this, there's so many open source models out there, and they get better every day. I've seen people fully reverse engineer programs from disassmebling their original code into compilable code in its original programmed language, Claude happily churning until it is fully translated, compiles and runs.
Whatever your thoughts on AI are, if you aren't at least considering it for security auditing (or to enhance security auditing) you are sleeping at the wheel just waiting to be hacked by some teenager skiddie with AI.
