Great article. This echoes many of the same conclusions I reached while documenting my own AI app-building journey, especially around the security and governance aspects of adopting AI in development.

One point that particularly resonated with me was your reminder that "AI-generated code still belongs to you." It's an easy line to read past, but it's probably one of the most important. AI can accelerate development dramatically, but it doesn't transfer responsibility. Security, licensing, architecture, testing, and compliance remain the developer's responsibility.

I also appreciate that you approached the topic pragmatically instead of treating AI as either a silver bullet or something to fear. Balancing productivity with proper security controls is where the real value lies.

Reading this was reassuring because it aligns closely with the lessons I've been documenting from my own AI-assisted build projects.
