The same is also true of a good security researcher, and has been for a long time. The question is mostly whether it takes long enough to come up with a testcase that we've managed to ship the fix to all affected releases, and given people some time to update. (And maybe LLMs do change the calculus there! We'll have to wait and see.)

Possibly! One of the many areas that might need rethinking in the age of AI (that started in February of this year) is how long security bugs should be hidden. We live in interesting times.
