How Deterministic Rules Keep AI-Generated Code Safe (RSAC interview with Jeremy Katz)

In this video, you will learn how deterministic rules serve as the ultimate safeguard for AI-generated code. Jeremy Katz talks to iSMG's Matthew Schwartz explains why shifting security to the left—specifically within SonarQube for IDE—is essential for catching vulnerabilities before they ever reach your CI/CD pipeline. As organizations increasingly adopt LLMs for software development, the volume of code produced is skyrocketing, but so is the risk of "hallucinated" vulnerabilities and insecure patterns. This session explores the critical role of quality code standards in an AI-driven world. While AI is probabilistic, your security needs to be deterministic. By utilizing SonarQube Server or SonarQube Cloud, teams can enforce rigorous checks that ensure AI-generated suggestions meet enterprise-grade safety requirements.
