I think using open weight models will solve this. I believe they are nearly caught up and much of the gains are in the harnesses or properly orchestration of subqueries. (I'm no expert, just my opinion).

When the open weight models catch up, if they don't get lobbied and banned by OpenAi and Anthropic, then you'll be able to use them to properly secure your software.

I'm no cyber expert, maybe one can weigh in.

Are there zero days that only a true genius can discover? Or can a smart-enough model, run over the codebase for enough time, discover them all?

Like as we get smarter and smarter models do we expect each new generation to keep finding vulnerabilities, or to plateaue?

Pretty sure the secret sauce is in the summarised thinking. Maybe better though process… But I have a feeling it’s server side tools and a scratch space to prepare the reply.

Sometimes the summarised thoughts include stuff that makes no sense unless it’s got a workspace on the server. Stuff like “I am now writing x to file y”.
