Sarah Guo is pointing at a real inflection: the CVE spike she cites coincides with AI-assisted code flooding production, and agents will only widen the gap between what we ship and what we can secure. Her framing — outpacing both attackers and our own agent-generated bugs — is correct, because security was always an arms race and AI just changed its tempo. What the post understates is incentives: nobody gets paid to patch decades of legacy software, so 'fixing 50 years of sloppiness' will likely require regulatory or procurement pressure, not goodwill. For founders, this doubles as a market signal — security tooling built for agent-era code review looks like one of the hottest categories ahead. Take it seriously; this isn't alarmism.
1/ pretty bad out there. We have to fix the last 50 years of software and internet sloppiness. Faster than adversaries can find the holes, and faster than we ship new ones (with agents!). CVEs went from ~4k a month to ~15k since April. That is not business as usual.
