A special guest-led PBC Virtual session that welcomed speaker Jim Manico, Founder of Manicode Security. Jim guided us on an exploration of the rise of AI in coding, highlighting both the benefits and challenges of AI-generated code, particularly around security.
This session covered how AI tools can improve development speed, consistency, and reduce errors, while also posing risks like resource leaks, insecure data handling, and API misuse. Jim's talk presented a secure AI code lifecycle, focusing on translating security requirements into prompt structures, validating AI-generated code, and iteratively refining prompts. Emphasis was placed on secure prompt engineering to mitigate vulnerabilities and on best practices to ensure AI-generated code aligns with security standards.
