Thanks for trying to help on the defensive side!

And, well, since you didn't _specifically_ ask for questions about the blog post:

Why are you not quitting your job in protest and screaming at the top of your lungs about it, seeing so closely what these models are capable of that your company is creating? There exists now something that is able to find 948 kernel LPE vulnerabilities. How, exactly, will humans be able to control and contain, say, next year's models for a nonzero amount of time?

He quits and screams from the rooftops. Then what? That stops the approaching tsunami? This is out of anyones control already. Pandoras box is already opened. The person you replied to merely found a more buoyant life raft than you or I.

We might end up with a secure kernel, and you want them to stop?
