Bitcoin Core Revises Security Policy Amid AI-Assisted Bug Hunting

Bitcoin Core is changing its security policy as artificial intelligence makes software vulnerabilities easier to identify.

The project says withholding details about certain flaws no longer provides as much protection in an environment where AI can assist bug hunters, according to Cointelegraph.

The change reflects a reassessment of secrecy as a security measure. The reported rationale concerns some vulnerabilities, rather than a claim that all undisclosed bugs should be made public.
