This is fine...

"We observed that participants who had access to the AI assistant were more likely to introduce security vulnerabilities for the majority of programming tasks, yet were also more likely to rate their insecure answers as secure compared to those in our control group."

I feel like I've been screaming this for so long and you're someone who gets it. AI stuff right now is pretty neat. I'll use it to get jumping off points and new ideas on how to build something.

I would never ever push something written by it to production without scrutinizing the hell out of it.
