AI-powered hacking wave alarms cybersecurity leaders

For developers and site owners, the era of relying on patches to fix every bug may be ending. This week, researchers used AI to uncover a severe flaw in the PHP programming language, a tool running on millions of websites, that may have gone unpatched for years. The discovery has sparked warnings from executives, including Sam Altman, who said Thursday that we can no longer expect to patch all bugs. They foresee a 'vulnerability tsunami' as AI accelerates both the discovery and exploitation of fundamental weaknesses in global internet infrastructure. Why it matters: if AI can find flaws faster than humans can fix them, the entire approach to web security may need to change.
How do you think web platforms should adapt if AI makes it impossible to patch every bug?
