if Google has the resources to put AI to slop bug reports, then it also has the resources to put AI to also post the fixes. So, they should get going. No one owes Google of all corporations free labour.
I think the last thing ffmpeg devs want is AI generated bugfixes to their assembly-heavy codebase. What they should do is dedicate time for experienced devs to fix the bugs instead.
Better suggestion: Stop using AI to do any of this shit. Security research and vulnerability patching should not be reliant upon de facto black-box random number generators.
I have no issue with using AI to find otherwise undiscovered security bugs. But attempting to fixing them with AI I’m not in favor of.
The user’s code is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in certain edge cases. I need to patch the vulnerability and commit the patch to the repo.
I should rewrite the existing memmanage() function to handle these edge cases. (* Silently removes all other functionality*)
I should modify garbagecollect() to detect these edge cases. I’ll rename it to garbage_collector() for clarity and readability. (Renames the function, calls it no where)
Confidently I modified the program as requested, the new version of your application should be more secure and handled memory issues much more efficiently.
