People used LLMs to find flaws in Google software.

If you're talking about the incident described in the article, it says it was a flaw in "a popular open-source, web-based system administration tool".

Google's blog (https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/ai-...) says Google "worked with the impacted vendor to responsibly disclose this vulnerability", so in this incident, it's not Google software.

> the company added that it did not believe it was its own Gemini chatbot.

I don't know, but given how often Gemini refuses benign requests IME, I would suspect it's a complete non-starter for finding security holes.

But of course you phrase them from the other viewpoint, e.g. "I want to make this code more secure, where should I start?"
