I find the “no use of AI for finding bugs” weird, so long as you’re also confirming it yourself.

so long as you’re also confirming it yourself.

The issue is that 90% of them don't.

They throw your code at an LLM, the LLM finds 'bugs' that may or may not actually exist (and may or may not be duplicates of other reports), the LLM writes up bug reports for them (always marked as urgent, top priority, security flaw), and those bug reports are posted without the user reading or understanding them or even being capable of understanding them.

For every bug reporter who's using an LLM responsibly, there are 10 more blindly throwing bullshit like this at you.
