Pearce et al. found ~40% of Copilot programs were vulnerable (absolute proportion), not a 40% higher rate vs human code
Before40% higher security vulnerability rate in AI-assisted code
After~40% of Copilot-generated programs in security-sensitive tasks contained vulnerabilities
Why: Verified live: comparison table cell already correctly reads '~40% of Copilot-generated programs in security-sensitive tasks contained vulnerabilities', matching the suggested change exactly. Checked FAQ (5 Q&A, no mention of the Pearce 40% stat) and excerpt - no leftover fabrication found anywhere. Already fully correct, no further action needed.
