In just the last 6 months, LLM’s are now find bugs and security issues in code that nobody has found in literally decades of investigations.

More terrifying? This isn’t your game code – it’s code that runs everything. Bugs in the Linux kernel that have been there since 2003 but were found by an LLM in minutes. Bugs in packages that have been around for 25 years. Bugs so bad that they give you access to almost anything. The rate of bug discovery by LLM’s is now on an exponential curve that is unlikely to stop anytime soon. In fact, he knows of hundreds of kernel bugs he cannot file because he simply can’t keep up with verifying them at the rate the LLM’s are finding them.

Based on current AI progression, he believes LLM’s will be better at finding bugs than the top 1-2% of vulnerability researchers in less than a year – and that power will likely be available not with GPU’s in the cloud, but on LLM’s you can run on your laptop. With this facing the world of computing, it’s highly likely bad actors could nearly completely destroy and hijack banking systems, just about any online service, and critical infrastructure. Almost everything could be open to hackers in just months.

We’re facing a real Y2K situation. It’s happened so fast that almost everyone is in denial or simply doesn’t know it’s happening.
