The original title is "AI Code Assistants: Creating Efficiency or Dependency?"

Short summary

AI code assistants like Gemini Flash speed up boilerplate generation by 15-20%, automating Docker configs, CRUD endpoints, and SQL scaffolding. Security risks are real: the author found SQL injection in AI-generated code and inefficient queries that weren't obvious at first glance. The takeaway is leverage AI for tedious work but always review output critically to prevent skill atrophy and catch vulnerabilities.

• •AI assistants provide measurable productivity gains (15-20%) for repetitive, boilerplate-heavy tasks
• •AI-generated code carries real security risks (SQL injection, N+1 queries, inefficient indexes) that must be reviewed
• •Developers must maintain critical eye and deep knowledge to avoid dependency and catch bugs AI produces

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
