Escape the Try-Again Loop: Verifying AI-Generated Code
summary
Worldwide Technology reports AI coding agents make teams about twice as fast, finishing a customer mobile app in half the contract time, but that velocity produces bloat, duplicated modules and at least one incident where Claude Code causing lost feature forces rollbacks. The talk catalogs risks from data leakage via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), shadow AI sprawl, and security holes, and shows a practical stack: agent generation + deterministic verification, automated guardrails and Sonar-style static analysis to catch vulnerabilities at scale.
