The approach that we've taken with this is pen testing is often, we call it black box in the sense that an attacker comes up to a black box.
You don't really know what's inside and you try to test various ways to figure it out.
The AI can accelerate dramatically the time to vulnerability detection by having that source code.
And again, they were trained to be good at software engineering.
And so as part of software engineering, you can say to it, well, I wrote this code.
Are there security vulnerabilities left in the product?
And that's the prompt.
Please find a security vulnerability in this code base.
It's surprising to all of us, I think, that a large language model, which is trained on text basically, but also trained on code, is capable of holding such a large context of source code in its memory
and reasoning through, okay, this thing over here looks like it could be a security vulnerability.
the other models are going to rapidly have similar capabilities.
And we've already seen it with some of the other Frontier models.
The real question is there's several Chinese vendors that are producing open weight models.
When those reach those same levels of capability and they're out there in public for anyone to use, that's when we really get scared about it.
And historically, those open weight models have been about six to eight months behind where the Frontier labs are.
Doesn't guarantee it.
There's a lot of work and a lot of money that goes into training these models.
And I hope this turns into kind of a Y2K situation where we put a lot of work in upfront and then absolutely nothing happens.
And that would be wonderful for me.
The challenge with AI, particularly generative AI, is that it's not necessarily that predictable.
