AI-Powered Apps Rise, Security Risks Loom
Generative AI enables non-technical founders to build consumer apps in hours ("Vibe Coding"), driving Google Play Store growth to 1.878m apps; however, 62% of AI-generated code contains security vulnerabilities—2.74x higher than human-written code—with recent breaches of Lovable and Moltbook exposing authentication data and personal information.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Generative AI and Cybersecurity. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself.

Security auditing and automated vulnerability patching for AI-generated code is now a market.
