    AI finds bugs and holes that wouldn‘t be a problem if AI didn‘t discover them. I really don‘t envy devs for dealing with this nowadays.

      Disagree. They would be a problem. Not for you, but for selected people (e.g. journalists in countries that want to spy on them)

        Not really how it plays out. In reality safety issues of a magnitude that only surfaced once a decade are now found by AI every few weeks, showcasing that AI itself poses the biggest threat for cybersecurity today. The overwhelming majority of them would have never been found or exploited without AI.

          You could and still can sell vulnerabilities to companies that sell exploits to governments. You might hear of heavy ones getting to the public once a decade, but you can expect them do be traded and used much more often and used on targets much more important than us all the time.
