Google says artificial intelligence is dramatically increasing the number of security vulnerabilities it can find and fix in Chrome, with more than 1,000 security bugs patched across the browser’s two most recent releases as it expands its use of AI.
According to Google, Chrome 149 and Chrome 150 fixed 1,072 security bugs, surpassing the total number fixed across the previous 23 Chrome milestones combined.
The company says it now uses large language models throughout the vulnerability management process, including discovering flaws, reproducing reports, determining severity, assigning bugs to developers, generating candidate patches, and creating tests.
