Comment says AI is finding a surge of critical software bugs

A Schneier on Security comment asserts that 3% of all recorded critical software vulnerabilities were identified in the past month and that the current pace implies roughly 100,000 new bugs this year, about a 26% increase on the historical total. No CVE identifiers, affected products, or sources for these figures are given, so the numbers should be treated as unverified. The piece offers no defensive guidance, but it does suggest that vulnerability disclosure and patch volumes may rise sharply, which argues for reviewing patch-management capacity and prioritisation.
