Organizations using AI to monitor employees' behavior and productivity can expect them to complain more, be less productive and want to quit more—unless the technology can be framed as supporting their development. Unless the AI is given control of the electric shockers

CocoaPods, an open-source dependency manager used in over three million applications coded in Swift and Objective-C, left thousands of packages exposed and ready for takeover for nearly a decade – thereby creating opportunities for supply chain attacks on iOS and macOS apps, according to security researchers. You're using the dependencies wrong (or something like that)
At least a bit of good news, "EVA's researchers wrote that they haven't seen evidence of this mess having been exploited." Of course, with so many targets, I can't imagine they've looked at all of them to see if they're being attacked.

AI-assisted development is now the norm - 78% of survey respondents currently use AI in software development or plan to in the next two years, up from 64% in 2023. That's strange, measuring developer productivity has always been so easy in the past

I'm a bit cynical about it.
My bias notwithstanding, isn't a Gitlabs based survey a bit pre-disposed to being lopsided here?
It might not be where all the folks using AI are, but it's near certain to be where all the folks doing anything with making/using it really heavy would be?
