The context of an LLM is also finite.
Vulnerabilities are perpetually being created, and this will be true no matter how good LLMs become at writing code - there's simply too many factors that can contribute to something apparently benign becoming dangerous.
- ViscountPenguin 5mo agoLots of bugs seem to be fundamentally quite local, but potentially with global trigger conditions. Heart bleed for example could've been avoided even if you could only read small segments of the codebase at a time, but could only be triggered with more context. I suspect that a combination of ai and memory safe languages will really shine in the next decade.
