From inner loop to outer loop: trustworthy AI coding with Sonar + OpenAI

Tuesday, June 23 at 5pm CEST | 10am CT

AI assistants can write code fast — but speed only pays off when every line is verified, from the moment it's generated to the moment it ships. That takes two loops working together: the inner loop, where developers catch issues as they code, and the outer loop, where teams validate quality and security across the whole codebase.

Join Sonar host Tom Howlett, Director of AI Engineering Engagement, and [Speaker, OpenAI] for a joint live demo of the full flow. In the inner loop, we verify code as ChatGPT and Codex generate it — surfacing issues the moment they appear. Then we shift to the outer loop, where SonarQube validates the broader codebase and AI Code Fix (powered by a GPT model, naturally) generates one-click remediations.

Built for developers, security teams, and engineering leaders ready to ship AI-assisted code with confidence.
