It really depends on how their particular system is set up. You're just making sweeping vibe based statements without any evidence to support them.
Yeah, like maybe this is one of those AIs that is actually just a guy in the Philippines being paid shit wages. Or maybe it’s a dumb LLM that makes lots of mistakes. Or maybe it’s all just bullshit from TechCrunch where an underpaid journalist is just recycling a fucking press release from Google and none of this actually happened anything like how it’s written.
Or maybe new technology actually has valid applications despite the hype associated with it.
It’s not entirely impossible. But given the story is light on detail and the main source is Google PR it looks very much like a case of hypemongering.
I mean we'll see, in general stuff like finding vulnerabilities in large code bases seems like a good fit for this tech. All it's doing is making statistical inferences based on training, and this can help spot problems that would be hard to track down by hand.
