The concentration of power is there either way, giving everyone a zero day button does nothing but create chaos and disarray.

We already gave everyone a zero-day button. Zero days are being discovered for Windows, macOS and Linux on a weekly or sometimes daily basis.

The result has been more proactive and informed OS security with a higher turnover rate for discovering, disclosing and patching new bugs. The market for creating zero-days has cratered and left talented malware developers without a cornered market. Frontier, uncensored LLMs like GLM 5.2 are proving instrumental in responding to cutting-edge adversaries.

Your theory does not hold up in practice and cannot be meaningfully extrapolated to more advanced AI.
