Bugs (in new code) are hopefully being added more slowly than bugs found and squashed in existing code - so surely the number of remaining bugs will drop. Hopefully those running bug finding AIs are not keeping some remote exploitable bugs to themselves; I would not be surprised if government agencies were doing this.

Or even a nation state that gets hold of a copy of Claude, I can think of many that would happily use it for this -- and worse.

People who have a much greater standing than me have said that Israel is carrying out genocide, eg: The International Association of Genocide Scholars, Holocaust scholar Amos Goldberg, Médecins Sans Frontières, Raz Segal "A Textbook Case of Genocide" to list but a few. The evidence is there for all to see but our political leaders in the West ignore it.

Then there is Jerusalem, the West Bank, South Lebanon - all with the aim of Greater Israel.

Israel is training AI chatbots how to talk about Gaza so that when people query what is happening it casts doubt on the genocide that it is doing in Palestine. This is even more dangerous as people might start to believe Israel's lies.

If it is optional then I hope that I can chose who I buy it from. However I doubt that this is the case.

In the last few days plug-in solar became legal for Britons. How expensive are they ? One company will "sell 460W and 890W kits, starting at £599 and £999 respectively, and it plans to launch another four models in late September, with prices starting from £499". Expect them to repay their cost in 4 to 10 years. I expect the purchase price to come down as volume sold goes up.

pay the orange one a sufficiently large bribe to ensure that he was not charged.

The intellect of toddlers improves as time passes. Trump's appears to be going in the opposite direction.

Correct. When I am driving my attention should be looking at the car in front, not peering at a display trying to find the menu item to change air-con fan speed. These screens are dangerous, you think that you will find what you want with a quick glance and suddenly realise that you have had your eyes off the road for 10 seconds - which at 70mph is over 200 yards.

I guess that BMW is now struck off the list when I next look for a car to buy; along with Tesla and others which are just computer screens with a vehicle attached.

My point was to stop a vendor saying that the product lifetime is 3 months and thus using this as a get out from having to provide updates over a reasonable period. Quite how long is another debate.

Also: this need not apply to all s/ware and all bugs equally. Some which, for example, can lead to a security failure exploitable from a remote location if more important than a local cosmetic issue. Deciding a classification is a bigger can of worms than it seems at first sight.

and s/ware vendors had to provide patches/... for free. Declaring a short product lifetime would not be allowed. Would we have better quality s/ware, written secure by design ?

To work Linus' Law needs many eyeballs, unfortunately these are not always around. It seems that AI is helping - which is good. I assume/hope that the current deluge will abate once the current/historic CVEs get fixed and that the only new ones are for bugs in new code.

Because scientists follow the evidence to draw conclusions, they sometimes say things that contradict the ideology. Climate change is a good example of this.

yet people still claim (and some maybe even believe) that climate change is a hoax. Do something before it is too late. I used to think that it would affect my grandkids, not me (I am 71), but I am now not so sure - this Summer has been hot!
