Riskable

The reason why you hear this so often is because academia is designed to teach students based on a logical, reasonable curriculum. The curriculum will be mostly well-thought-out and cover all the important topics.

Then you take someone who followed this perfectly reasonable path and you place them in front of the total shitshow that is most businesses. Everything they think they know won’t be applicable because most of the time, logic and reason were not what drove adoption of any given tool or practice.

So… In no time at all, they’re going to be breached. Proving them wrong.

Will they go back to open source after that? No. Of course not. Because it was never about security to begin with. AI is just an excuse.

It’s like saying, “anyone can scan the source for vulnerabilities! It’s so easy. Too easy! That’s why we’re not going to justdo that ourselves and instead bury our heads in the sand and pretend the availability of source code was the problem.”
