'10 years of cyber attacks and patches in a few weeks' — AI compresses the security cycle
robleclerc · x · 2026-10-24
Rob Leclerc observes that AI is compressing roughly a decade of cybersecurity attacks and patches into a few weeks. His take: these vulnerabilities were always lurking as risks, and surfacing them now is better than later. The one-liner captures AI's acceleration of the full exploit-and-patch loop — discovery, weaponization, and remediation cycles shrink, narrowing response windows for security teams.
