According to Wu Blockchain, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to the recent debates sparked by AI discovering a critical PHP security vulnerability. He stated that he has never predicted that network defense would automatically outpace attacks. Instead, he believes that in the long term, cybersecurity may eventually favor defenders, but the transition process will be extremely challenging. He pointed out that simply relying on security researchers to discover existing software vulnerabilities before hackers do cannot fundamentally establish a defensive advantage. Truly changing the offense-defense dynamic requires deep reforms in technical approaches, such as formal verification and minimizing the Trusted Computing Base (TCB). These transformations are only just beginning. This is also one of the key reasons he continues to support the idea of slowing down or pausing AI development and advocates for allocating over 1% of GDP to cybersecurity, biosecurity, and real-world safety measures. https://www.(wublock123.com)/news/vitalik-ai-era-network-defense-needs-over-1-percent-gdp-security-70493
