zainhas · x · 2026-08-01
The Google Chrome Security team revealed they are deploying LLMs at scale to accelerate vulnerability discovery, triage, and patching.
- AI Impact: By deploying AI models, Google fixed more Chrome bugs in June than in the previous two years combined.
- Evolution: The team began using LLMs in 2023 to boost fuzzing coverage, partnered with Project Zero on 'Naptime' in 2024, and collaborated with DeepMind in 2025 to launch 'Big Sleep', an AI agent that successfully found V8 bugs.
- Goal: Integrate AI into the entire lifecycle—from bug discovery to update application—to achieve comprehensive remediation faster than ever.
