AI-Generated Software

AI-generated software refers to code, applications, and systems produced partially or entirely by artificial intelligence tools rather than human developers. This matters for AI governance because organizations must establish policies around IP ownership, quality assurance, security vetting, and liability when AI tools generate production code. Compliance teams need to track which software contains AI-generated components to manage risks around model bias, undocumented dependencies, and regulatory requirements that may apply differently to AI-assisted development.

55% of CISOs and CTOs Demand Centralized Controls for AI-Generated Software, Survey Finds

A June 2026 survey of 307 CTOs, CIOs, and CISOs conducted by Retool finds that 55% of technology leaders believe security and access controls for AI-generated internal software must reside in a centralized platform. The report highlights persistent governance gaps around shadow AI and so-called vibe coding tools, where developers use AI assistants to generate and deploy internal applications outside formal IT review. The findings signal that most enterprises lack the structural controls needed to govern this category of AI-assisted development.
