alt Hacker NewsSo instead of using a memory safe language or harden the C code they hope LLMs will find bugs in their code? Neither do they mention how their way to patch Exceptions into C makes It very difficult for Fuzzers to find those bugs? Good luck this statement should tell everyone to migrate away from that horrible language and runtime.

This is what I thought as well. How is this still so popular if it has such fundemental flaws? With the increasing power of LLM, more vulnerabilities will definitely surface sooner or later.

Please identify a non-toy language that has never had a vulnerability.

It's one of the biggest runtimes on the internet; the C code will be some of the safest out there. Rewriting to a memory safe(r) language is a huge bet, even today. Nobody's stopping anyone from forking and creating alternative runtimes.
