Google says AI is now finding Chrome security bugs so quickly that it plans to release security updates twice a week.
The company revealed that AI tools helped identify 1,072 security bugs in Chrome 149 and 150, more than the previous 23 Chrome releases combined.
One of the discoveries was a 13-year-old sandbox escape vulnerability that had gone unnoticed for years.
To respond faster, Google is testing twice-weekly security updates, alongside its upcoming two-week major release cycle. It is also working on dynamic patching, which lets Chrome apply some security fixes without requiring a full browser restart.
Google says the faster update cadence is necessary as AI is dramatically speeding up vulnerability discovery.
