Here’s a key line in this mythos update. This is precisely an example of why engineers don’t go away, ever.
We’ve made it far easier to create and find security issues, which means the new bottleneck is our ability to actually review, respond to, and fix the issues.
Far from AI magically solving all of this, there still is major triage work and human judgment required to do the follow on work to actually protect systems. As a result, we’re about to enter a security engineer boom.
Jevons paradox all over again.
Last month we launched Project Glasswing, our collaborative AI cybersecurity initiative. Since then, we and our partners have found more than ten thousand high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities in essential software.
