Me: oh it's so special and cool that NSA contractors develop 0-days for Windows and whatever to exploit, that seems like it must be impossible
You: It's about $1k in tokens per exploit, which if you sell the exploits for a profit aligns with current market rates
At some point a.i. safety will require more regulation of token sales , I would imagine there is already a market for stolen tokens which could be used to accumulate enough to run this concept at scarier speeds
The scary part isn't AI finding bugs — it's the speed. A human takes weeks to go from crash to exploit; if an agent does it in hours, the patch window collapses. Disclosure norms weren't built for machine-speed vuln research.
