It's bold to call something that has prevented real-world attacks "security theater", with the justification that one day the world might change enough that it's less likely to prevent future attacks. Was the printing press worthless, just because we have laser printers nowadays?

Anyhow, If you believe LLMs will kill security research, then surely you must also believe a cooldown of 1 week would be enough time for your favorite LLM to analyze a new package version?

I think it's great if people actually use LLM for the analysis. I did mention it in the solution part in the post:

What do you call the time period between "new package is released" and "automated security scanners have analyzed the package"? That sure sounds like a release cooldown to me.

		I applaud you if you do setup automated security scanners, without counting on external security groups or individuals (that doesn't have a security contract with your company). This post is based on an assumption from what I see (I would be very happy if it's wrong) that most companies do not event bother to do these scans. They are merely waiting for the free kindness.
