Hot take: Even with the widespread use of AI now, I don't think finding software exploits will get significantly easier in the future

Wait 5 sec.

​ The reason I'm saying this, and something I don't see getting brought up at all, is that while it's true that AI makes finding exploits easier and faster for people, big companies like Sony and Nintendo can, and will use LLMs to protect their consoles against exploits as well. With the money they have, they can afford to use it to extensively help their security team scan their firmware for exploits, and patch them before they get discovered by the wider public. So in my opinion, while there is a significant acceleration of progress now, pretty soon things will stabilize back to the same dynamic, maybe even worse.   submitted by   /u/fourunderthebridge [link]   [comments]
