Please. Are we going to rely now in Anthropic et al to secure our systems? Wasn’t enough to rely on them to build our systems? What’s next? To rely on them for monitoring and observability? What else? Design and mockups?

If we rely on Anthropic to write our system, it's only natural to rely on them to secure it. Seriously, at the big tech companies were rapidly approaching all code being written by LLMs... so at least we have the close the security chain quickly.

The nice thing about vulnerability research is that you either have a vulnerability or you don't. There's no such thing as a "slop vulnerability".

"We burned 10 trillion tokens and the Amazon rain forest is now a desert, but our stochastic parrot discovered that if a user types '$-1dffj39fff%FFj$@#lfjf' 10 thousand times into a terminal that you can get privilege escalation on a Linux kernel from 10 years ago. The best part? We avoided paying anyone outside of the oligarchy for the discovery of this vulnerability."

In your embarrassingly reductive binary vulnerability state worldview? Have.
