The rapid advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have led to the development of AI coding assistants, which are increasingly being adopted in software development processes. In September 2024, the French Cybersecurity Agency (ANSSI) and the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) jointly published a report titled "AI Coding Assistants" to provide recommendations for the secure use of these tools.

This legal insight aims to analyse the key findings from the ANSSI and BSI report. By examining the opportunities, risks, and recommendations outlined in the document, we can understand how India should approach the regulation of AI coding assistants to ensure their safe and responsible use in the software industry.

The article highlights the main points from the ANSSI and BSI report, including the potential benefits of AI coding assistants, such as increased productivity and employee satisfaction, as well as the associated risks, like lack of confidentiality, automation bias, and the generation of insecure code. The recommendations provided by the French and German agencies for management and developers are also discussed.
