I think my point is related because if the AI is great at finding vulnerabilities then it should be possible just tell AI to write the code and another AI to look for vulnerabilities and secure them. All for $20 + $20 instead of 20k.

Unless AI is somehow uncharacteristically weak in finding vulnerabilities in AI produced code. Which can probably be tested.
