The AI Era Is Creating a Bug Hunting Arms Race
The increasing sophistication of AI models is creating an arms race in software vulnerability discovery and exploitation. Researchers are submitting more bugs than ever, leading to higher payouts from tech giants, while also anticipating a future scarcity as AI finds the low-hanging fruit. This AI-driven acceleration is compressing traditional disclosure timelines, potentially forcing organizations to patch vulnerabilities faster to counter both legitimate researchers and malicious actors.
