Google has used AI tools to detect and patch 1,072 vulnerabilities in versions 149 and 150 of its Chrome browser, the company announced in a blog post.
That’s more vulnerabilities patched than in the previous 23 updates combined, according to Bleeping Computer.
One vulnerability detected by AI had been present in Chrome for 13 years but, for some reason, had never been detected by Google’s developers.
To further strengthen security, Google now plans to release new security patches for Chrome every week; down the road, it might even release two updates per week if needed.
