alt Hacker NewsI received 9 reports of Fil-C issues from Anthropic
All of them were real bugs. None of them were false positives.
The quality of the reports was exceptional. (My baseline is doing security defense on a browser engine, so my baseline has a large sample count and is probably representative of what experts are capable of.)
The quality of the proposed fixes was alright. I took some of the fixes verbatim. I used most of the fixes as significant inspiration for doing it my way.
The quality of the test cases was exceptional.
Maybe I’m special somehow! But I just want to call out the enormous chasm between what I saw of anthropic’s capability and what TFA says

Linux maintainer is extremely unhappy with the high false positive rate from Mythos vuln: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NnV_cWeoo5Q&pp=0gcJCVgCo7VqN5t...
I think someone who likes AI thinks it’s good, someone who doesn’t, doesn’t think it’s anything impressive, and concretely nothing of any significance has happened to the world, certainly nothing like the crowdstrike shutdown so I don’t find the capabilities to be anything impressive.
