If "bad guy AI" can find flaws, can "good guy AI" patch them faster when backed by trillion dollar companies?

If I sell weapons to both sides of a conflict, can I become rich?
No. To become really rich you have to draw a 3rd player into the conflict, and then sell weapons to them as well.
Or just lend money to both parties to fund their war efforts and pay off war debts afterwards.
Ask anyone selling AI hardware recently!
Yes.

Please refer to any seller of weapons ever.

Do your AI patches introduce fewer flaws than they repair?
That's a trillion dollar question.
"Google used AI to find a major software flaw" — there, fixed it for you, happy?
The bottleneck is probably validating and deploying the fix, which requires coordination.
