Generative AI tools let developers fix code at speed that collapses software maintenance bottlenecks into near-automated processes. Organizations can now remediate bugs faster than they accumulate, which also means security vulnerabilities get patched before exploits mature. This shrinks the window attackers have between disclosure and deployment. The constraint is whether human code review and testing infrastructure can absorb machine output without becoming a liability.
