Google says it fixed more Chrome bugs in June than over the past two years, thanks to AI

得益于人工智能，谷歌称其六月份修复的 Chrome 漏洞数量超过了过去两年总和

With help from its internal AI tools, Google says it has patched more security flaws in its Chrome browser in the last month than in the past two years combined. The tech giant announced on Thursday that it has fixed a whopping 1,072 security bugs in the last two versions of Chrome, both released in June. That is more than the number of bugs patched in the previous 23 versions released over the last two years, which totaled 1,036 fixes. 谷歌表示，在内部人工智能工具的帮助下，其上个月在 Chrome 浏览器中修复的安全漏洞数量超过了过去两年的总和。这家科技巨头周四宣布，在六月份发布的两个 Chrome 版本中，共修复了多达 1,072 个安全漏洞。这一数字超过了过去两年中发布的 23 个版本所修复的漏洞总数（共 1,036 个）。

Ever since the advent of LLMs, cybersecurity experts have warned that AI-powered systems would find an increasingly and exponentially enormous amount of bugs, forcing defenders to also use AI to get ahead of malicious hackers. That prediction is starting to come true, and it’s backed by real data. A chart published by Google, which the company revealed as part of a white paper on the company’s efforts to use AI to find flaws and patch them faster, shows the exponential increase. 自大语言模型（LLM）出现以来，网络安全专家就曾警告称，人工智能驱动的系统将以指数级速度发现海量漏洞，迫使防御者也必须利用人工智能来领先于恶意黑客。这一预测正开始成为现实，并得到了真实数据的支持。谷歌发布的一张图表显示了这种指数级的增长，该图表是公司白皮书的一部分，旨在展示谷歌如何利用人工智能更快地发现并修复漏洞。

Doug Turner, Chrome’s director of engineering, told TechCrunch in a statement that LLMs have “fundamentally shifted the economics of cybersecurity, transforming vulnerability discovery into an automated, industrial-scale operation.” “By applying models like Gemini, we are preemptively fixing vulnerabilities, outpacing our adversaries and making Chrome safer with every update,” said Turner. Chrome 工程总监 Doug Turner 在一份声明中告诉 TechCrunch，大语言模型“从根本上改变了网络安全的经济性，将漏洞发现过程转变为一种自动化的工业级操作”。Turner 表示：“通过应用 Gemini 等模型，我们正在预先修复漏洞，从而领先于对手，并使 Chrome 的每一次更新都更加安全。”

Google is not the only company seeing this trend. Earlier this month, Microsoft announced that it had patched a record 570 security flaws across its product lines as part of its monthly round of scheduled patches — colloquially known as “Patch Tuesday.” Microsoft cited its own use of AI to explain the sudden jump in bug fixes. 谷歌并非唯一一家观察到这一趋势的公司。本月初，微软宣布在其产品线中修复了创纪录的 570 个安全漏洞，作为其每月例行补丁更新（俗称“补丁星期二”）的一部分。微软将其漏洞修复数量的激增归因于自身对人工智能的使用。

Apple, meanwhile, does not appear to be registering the same exponential increase. According to an independent count of bugs fixed in its products, Apple has patched 482 bugs in 2026, which is roughly on pace to equal or surpass the number of fixed bugs from last year, and also roughly equal from the number of bugs that Apple patched in 2015. 与此同时，苹果公司似乎并未出现同样的指数级增长。根据对苹果产品修复漏洞的独立统计，苹果在 2026 年修复了 482 个漏洞，这一进度大致与去年持平或略有超越，也与苹果在 2015 年修复的漏洞数量大致相当。
