Hey readers! 👋

This week brought a fascinating collision of forces in the AI coding world: tools are getting dramatically better at finding problems, but we're also creating problems faster than ever. Claude Opus 4.6 quietly discovered 500-600 vulnerabilities in open-source projects within days, while a new study shows AI-generated code produces 1.7x more issues than human-written code. Meanwhile, the code review space is heating up with Qodo 2.0's multi-agent architecture claiming an 11% benchmark lead. Let's dig in.

Qodo 2.0 Redefines AI Code Review For Accuracy and Enterprise Trust launches with a multi-agent architecture that breaks reviews into specialized tasks, pulling context from entire repositories and historical pull requests. – Qodo

The platform claims an 11% improvement in precision and recall over competitors, with enterprises like Monday.com and Box already on board. With Gartner forecasting 90% of enterprise engineers will use AI code assistants by 2028, the demand for robust review tools is only growing.

Breaking the Code Review Bottleneck Created By AI explores how the surge in AI-generated code is overwhelming traditional review processes, with Qodo's multi-agent system achieving a 60.1% F1 score on real-world benchmarks. – DevOps.com
