AI Uncovers Stream of New Software Flaws, Experts Warn of More Disruptions
Advances in AI have uncovered a stream of new software vulnerabilities, almost certain to trigger more disruption.
AI has effectively thrown assumptions out the window, with models finding bugs and turning around exploits in hours, rather than weeks or months.
The demonstrated performance of AI models has laid to rest any doubts over whether they would change the industry, with experts predicting busy months ahead.
Experts are split on whether AI will lead to a hacker free-for-all, with some arguing that vulnerabilities found by AI models tend to be exotic bugs difficult for rogue actors to take advantage of.
