I would be careful about dismissing agentic cyber capabilities purely based on false positives. You only need a single true positive bug and the shift this year has been agents that are extremely good at not only finding exploits but stringing them together.

That's a different kind of capability though. None of the bugs discovered seem to be particularly serious and this talk pretty much shreds the idea that they're any good for that, but the thing called out here is that AI is very good at shortening the time to exploit security vulnerabilities. That's the thing that's really changed with threat management

As an industry can we please stop using "cyber" to mean cyber-security or even infosec.

Cybernetics is older than you.
