Seems like he's been pushed into using LLMs as a way to cope with the deluge of LLM-generated security reports.

How do you know those were the result of the AI?

I quite deliberately tried to err on the side of fixing security issues for that release, and there were some valid (but unusual) use cases that got caught up in the changes.

Seems to me like it was just his own fault. AI may very well have had nothing to do with the regressions, other than maybe not identifying them?
