Sysdig this week at the RSA Conference (RSAC) revealed it has created a runtime that makes it possible to securely deploy artificial intelligence (AI) coding tools. Jonas Rosland, director of the open source program for Sysdig, said the runtime makes it possible to monitor the activity of AI coding agents in real time, including potential […]
Anthropic Extends Claude Code Into Messaging Apps, Challenging OpenClaw’s Lead
Anthropic has debuted a new capability for its Claude Code platform, called Channels, that enables a number of key improvements. Notably, it allows users to communicate with the coding assistant through messaging platforms like Telegram and Discord. More important, Channels is continuously available, so it is closer to an active collaborator. Clearly, Anthropic’s release of […]
Checkmarx Adds Orchestration Framework to DevSecOps Platform
Checkmarx this week revamped its DevSecOps platform to include an orchestration framework for managing tasks assigned to artificial intelligence (AI) agents. Additionally, the company has added two additional artificial intelligence (AI) agents trained to triage vulnerabilities and remediate them using code it generates for review while at the same time adding an ability to discover […]
Harness Extends AI Security Reach Across Entire DevOps Workflow
Harness today added an ability to automatically secure code as it is being written by an artificial intelligence (AI) coding tool in addition to adding a module to its DevOps platform that discovers, tests, and protects AI components within applications. Secure AI Coding is an extension of the static application security testing (SAST) and software […]
Sauce Labs Makes AI Agent for Creating and Running Tests Available
Sauce Labs today made generally available an artificial intelligence (AI) agent that translates a natural language intent into a set of executable test suites that can run anywhere. Company CEO Dr. Prince Kohli said the Sauce AI for Test Authoring agent closes a gap that has emerged between the rate at which code is being […]
Survey: AI Coding Exacerbates Existing DevOps Workflow Issues
A global survey of 700 software engineering practices published this week finds that thanks to increased reliance on artificial intelligence (AI) coding tools, well over a third (35%) are either achieving daily or more frequent product deployments, with 36% deploying software multiple times per week. However, more than half (51%) also noted AI-generated code leads […]
AI Is Forcing DevOps Teams to Rethink Observability Data Management
As AI coding tools accelerate software delivery, they are also intensifying a problem DevOps and SRE teams have been dealing with for years: the unchecked growth of observability data. In this conversation, the founders of Sawmills argue that telemetry volume is no longer just a cost issue. It is becoming a data quality problem that […]
Report: Lower Performing Software Engineering Teams Benefit More from AI
An analysis of 2,000 organizations worldwide finds that historically lower performing software engineering teams are seeing nearly a 50% improvement in lead time to delivery, a four times greater rate of improvement over higher performing teams that have adopted AI coding tools. Conducted by Plandek, a provider of a developer productivity intelligence platform, the report […]
Checkmarx Extends Vulnerability Detection to AI Coding Tool from AWS
Checkmarx this week revealed it has added support for the Kiro artificial intelligence (AI) coding tool provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) to its Checkmarx Developer Assist that leverages AI to surface vulnerabilities before code is committed. The Checkmarx IDE extension for Kiro is designed to be activated from within the Developer Assist tab that […]
Best of 2025: AI Coding: New Research Shows Even the Best Models Struggle With Real-World Software Engineering
As AI increasingly permeates the software development landscape, new research from OpenAI offers sobering insights into the current limitations of even the most advanced AI coding assistants. The benchmark study, “SWE-Lancer: Can Frontier LLMs Earn $1 Million from Real-World Freelance Software Engineering?” presents evidence that despite rapid advances, today’s frontier AI models still fall short […]
