About this episode

This episode discusses a significant wave of software patches from Microsoft and the role of AI in identifying vulnerabilities.

This episode digs into the biggest patch wave in recent memory, with Microsoft dropping 622 fixes in a single day while browsers scramble to close exploited holes. We also explore how AI is now hunting vulnerabilities at scale—and how OpenAI built its own AI attacker to stress-test its models before hackers do.
