A developer is using Copilot to write a script that handles user authentication. The developer wants to ensure the code is secure. Which action is most aligned with validating AI output?

Accept the suggestion because Copilot is trained on secure coding patterns.

Ask Copilot to generate a different suggestion and choose the one that looks most secure.

Run a security-focused code review and test the authentication flow with various attack scenarios.

Use the suggestion as-is and rely on the framework's built-in security features.

Why is it necessary to validate the output of GitHub Copilot before using it in production code?

Because Copilot may generate code that is syntactically correct but semantically incorrect or insecure

Because Copilot only works correctly when the output is checked by a senior developer

Because Copilot's suggestions are always incomplete and require manual completion

Because Copilot requires validation to activate its license for commercial use

A team lead notices that developers often accept Copilot suggestions without reviewing them. To promote responsible AI use, which practice should the team adopt?

Mandate that all Copilot-generated code be reviewed by a senior developer before merging.

Rely on automated code analysis tools to catch any issues in Copilot-generated code.

Disable Copilot for junior developers until they gain more experience.

Encourage developers to accept suggestions quickly to maintain productivity.

A developer receives a Copilot suggestion for a SQL query that joins multiple tables. The developer is concerned about performance and correctness. Which validation step is most effective?

Ask Copilot to explain the query and then accept it without further testing.

Run the query against a production database to see if it returns the expected results.

Accept the suggestion because Copilot is known for generating efficient SQL queries.

Review the query for logical correctness and run it against a staging database with representative data.
