## AI overview

Snyk reports survey findings on enterprise adoption of generative AI coding tools. Although organizations generally felt prepared and considered the tools and generated code safe, many skipped proof-of-concept exercises and other basic security measures. Developers and AppSec professionals expressed more concern about AI-generated code than C-suite respondents.

## Source excerpt

In our latest report, Snyk surveyed security and software development technologists, from top management to application developers, on how their companies had prepared for and adopted generative AI coding tools.
