It's very exciting that generative ai lets people get more code written, especially in unfamiliar domains. It feels great to ship loads of code that does a thing. The sure result is an unprecedented increase in the amount of code in products. A minor drawback to that enthusiasm is that a lot of the code I read didn't need to exist in the first place, even before this wave. Lots of it can be attributed to the path dependence of creation as opposed to what it is trying to do. This should be a rich time to change to security / exploit work - the random search tools are great and the target just keeps getting easier. What our industry really desperately needed was to drive the quality of implementation right down. It's going to be an exciting time to be alive.
