AI just found 20 real vulnerabilities in major open-source projects — with zero human help. In this episode, Eli Schafer breaks down Google's new AI-powered bug hunter, Big Sleep, developed by DeepMind and Project Zero. What makes it different? Why are devs both excited and skeptical? And could this signal the beginning of a safer internet — one where AI doesn’t just write code, but protects it?

We’ll explore:

• How Big Sleep actually works (and why it matters)

• The rising wave of AI vulnerability scanners like XBOW and RunSybil

• The “AI slop” problem in bug bounty culture

• Why this is one of the most hopeful use cases for AI yet
