A new software development lifecycle methodology called HELIX has been proposed to address the challenges of AI-assisted coding. HELIX acknowledges that AI-generated code can be error-prone and insecure, with AI-assisted pull requests showing a significant increase in review findings. The methodology structures development into human and AI strands, with verification contracts acting as gates to ensure quality and security before code is merged. HELIX aims to provide a mechanical guarantee of quality, security, and risk control, treating AI agents as untrusted contractors with strict auditing and verification processes. AI
IMPACT Introduces a framework to manage risks associated with AI-generated code, potentially improving quality and security in software development.
