cloneofsimo shares two charts: a16z/Epoch data shows critical/high severity CVEs across Adobe, Apple, Microsoft, Google, NVIDIA and others going parabolic since 2026 (2,200+ high-severity per month), while monthly cs.AI arXiv submissions climbed from 400 in early 2024 to 3,000+. His quip: the number of exploits found correlates very well with arXiv submissions — hinting AI capability and security risk are exploding together.
