It's just prompt engineering for coding. Let an AI dump a bunch of code for you, debug until it no longer errors, pull request and repeat next sprint.

5% of the time, it works every time

    Brought to you by (us) security researchers who will happily come in and sort out your security issues later. For a very hefty hourly fee.

    I really doubt anybody will be happy about it, even after considering the size of the fees. And also, you have a very high estimation of the capacity of those people to notice they have to call you, I really doubt it's deserved.

    So I can do programming and find and fix bugs.
    How do I go on to advertise myself to them as a security researcher and get that hefty hourly fees?

    Problem is, I am not very good at fooling people marketing.

    Is it truly a deviation from outsourcing code to a 3rd party?

    Yeah, because at least a decent 3rd party might hand you documentation and have the sense to build something consistent or maintainable. AI has a limited context scope and frequently suffers a type of short term memory loss that results in repeated work or variations in work that confuse the end result.
