Forget the AI Slowdown, the Vulnerability Explosion Is Already Happening

AI labs are discussing an industry-wide pact to slow development, but widely available AI chatbots are simultaneously uncovering a large wave of security vulnerabilities. This creates a tension between efforts to restrict AI advancement and the reality that AI tools are already being used to discover significant security flaws in existing systems. The contradiction highlights how development-slowing measures may not address the immediate security risks that AI systems are already exposing.
