NEW: Google announced that its AI-powered bug hunter Big Sleep found its first 20 vulnerabilities, mostly in open source projects.

A company executive called the development "a new frontier in automated vulnerability discovery." But it's important to note that there was still a human involved, as Google told us.

"We have a human expert in the loop before reporting, but each vulnerability was found and reproduced by the AI agent without human intervention,” a spokesperson said.

The discoveries by an AI-based bug hunter are significant, as it shows these tools are starting to get real results, even if they still need a human.

Given that the vulnerabilities are not fixed yet, we don’t have details of their impact or severity, as Google does not yet want to provide details, which is a standard policy when waiting for bugs to be fixed.


Perhaps we should wait till these bugs are disclosed before building hype. Otherwise it is JUST taking Google's word for it.
