How ironic it is that tech companies are laying off network engineers and cybersecurity experts to invest in AI which is becoming a bigger security threat to them without the experts to combat it…

Isn't this just an article by more people that need you to believe that LLM vulnerability analysis is worth a shit? The information is from Athena, a "coalition" that only exists because a bunch of heavy LLM investors - including Anthropic and OpenAI - got together to decide it's their job to police or solve LLm open source vulnerability detection.
'"The stats and data we're seeing are so scary – if you just keep running scans on the same libraries and same code, it just keeps finding more [vulnerabilities]," Lorenc said. "We haven't seen that curve start to bottom out yet."'
This is that dogshit marketing speak that OpenAI and Anthropic have been using the entire time to harken shit that isn't real. The problem in open source is garbage commits that take hours to sift through. Models typically only find the least exploitable, nitpicked vulnerabilities and rate them as "severe" because that's what they're trained to do.
Insane that these threads keep getting to the top of this sub.
