Google says it fixed more Chrome bugs in June than over the past two years, thanks to AI
Google has patched over 1,072 security flaws in its Chrome browser in the last two months, surpassing the total number of fixes from the previous two years. The company attributes this to AI-driven vulnerability discovery, with its internal tools enabling an automated, industrial-scale approach to security updates. Meanwhile, Microsoft reported patching 570 security issues in the same period, leveraging AI to accelerate the process, while Apple has not shown the same exponential increase in bug fixes as its competitors.
