> The loudest reaction to Mythos Preview from other security leaders has been about speed - scan faster, patch faster, compress the response cycle. More than one team we have spoken with is now operating under a two-hour SLA from CVE release to patch in production [...] If regression testing takes a day, you cannot get to a two-hour SLA without skipping it, and the bugs you ship when you skip regression testing tend to be worse than the bugs you were trying to patch.

Over time, I wonder if these models will be able to generate more secure code by default by doing this kind of exploitability testing before ever merging their code.

I don't know, but it always seems weird to me when people notice AI isn't performing super well and then they conclude that the solution to problem is to try using more AI

  • Yeah why not? That's how I work. If I don't review my work, it's way worse than if I do review it and revise and iterate. I don't see why AI should be different: in fact it very clearly seems to be the case that is isn't.

    • I mean, I was sold something different. Something super human, vastly more intelligent, world changing. The reality is not that. Am I allowed to be disappointed and discouraged?

Or they don’t, and they* sell access to Mythos and successors through their services company or network of partners and charge a premium.

* they, I mean all foundation models providers, as OpenAI seems to go in the same direction
