Is AI-generated code getting a free pass at code review? Our new study reveals a stark contradiction in the era of vibe coding: 94% of tech leaders rate AI code as higher quality during review, yet 78% report a spike in production incidents once it ships. Same code, two very different pictures. The reality? While leaders love the speed of AI-generated code, organizations are quietly accumulating agent debt—unvetted logic that triggers production incidents down the line. Mitigating this risk is now the defining challenge for modern engineering teams. 📊 Read The 2026 State of AI Coding report to see the data: https://lnkd.in/gAPBqztX
