Today's LLMs craft exploits from patches at lightning speed.
Erlang? Er, man, no problem. ChatGPT, Claude to go from flaw
disclosure to actual attack code in hours.

Quote:
The time from vulnerability disclosure to proof-of-concept (PoC)
exploit code can now be as short as a few hours, thanks to generative
AI models.
"What changes with AI is the speed at which attackers can go from
disclosure to working exploit. The response timeline is shrinking.
Enterprises should treat every CVE release as if exploitation could
start immediately. You no longer have days or weeks to react. You need
to be ready to respond the moment the details go public."

That's the problem for our civilisation.
AIs work just as well for the bad guys as for the good guys........
