   I thought the &quot;Security in the LLM age&quot; talk by Greg Kroah-Hartman published this week from Kernel Recipes was pretty interesting: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=NnV_cWeoo5Q" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=NnV_cWeoo5Q

      500 CVEs per release to 2000+

      Extending the ratio from my other comment. What are the token ratios between using LLMs to:

      1. Create functional software

      2. Find bugs in functional software

      3. Triage&#x2F;Prioritise a quadrupling of the reported CVEs

      4. Fix the bugs while keeping the software functional

      I&#x27;m assuming that #2, #3, and #4 require more tokens (each or cumulatively) that #1, then there will be increase in the amount of insecure software because, with the advent of LLMs (that allow otherwise non-software developers to become software developers), there will be (a lot?) more software being created.

      If we want software security to get better, then the existence of LLMs requires the increasing use of LLMs. I find this quite interesting.
