Episode notes
AI-Generated False Bug Reports Overwhelm
- AI is generating false yet technically convincing bug reports, overwhelming security teams.
- These fake reports cause confusion and make it hard to distinguish real vulnerabilities from hallucinations.
Open Source Dev Shuts Bounty Program
- An open source developer shut down his bug bounty program due to almost entirely receiving AI-generated useless reports.
- This shows smaller projects suffer more from the AI slop problem than large companies.
Impact Differs by Company Size
- Large companies likely will not be as impacted by AI-generated false reports.
- They have resources to manage noise, whereas smaller projects are more vulnerable to being overwhelmed.
