The velocity of AI-assisted code contribution is outpacing human ability to review it. A year-over-year tripling suggests secrets management infrastructure built for human-speed workflows is now dangerously obsolete. GitHub's warning signals a concrete risk: credential leakage, API key exposure, and supply chain compromise scale exponentially when AI agents push code three times faster than security tooling can inspect it. Organizations relying on post-commit scanning or manual review gates operate in a security lag.
