Researcher Finds 600+ Bugs in LLM Kernel Code; Claude Blocks Safety Analysis
pmddomingos · x · 2026-10-31
Pedro Domingos amplified a developer's complaint: while building bug-finding tools for LLM-generated kernel code, they discovered 600+ bugs (growing hourly) and had no clear channel to report them. When they asked Claude to cross-reference the bugs against merged PRs, the response was suppressed for "safety" reasons — prompting Domingos' pointed "Dario, we have a problem." The incident spotlights how safety guardrails can block legitimate security research.
