> Today, Cal.com announced they are transitioning their core codebase away from open source. The reasoning provided by their CEO, Bailey Pumfleet, is that AI has automated vulnerability discovery at scale, making code scanning and exploitation "near zero-cost". In this new world, they argue, "transparency becomes exposure."

Laughable and hilarious. Extremely short sighted. I can show code generated by Claude Opus 4.6 at the highest compute intensity that lacks even basic checks in input validation that was clearly provided in the spec.

There's no point in arguing with crypto and AI bros. They are the same tribe. AI crowd however might learn their lessons sooner because the universe isn't forgiving or flexible.

Note: I use AI code generators all the time but I take them as very very dumb transpilers no matter how expensive their input/output pricing it and I learned that hard way.
