- Modern bug-finding tools detect numerous issues quickly, overwhelming developers with the task of fixing them.
- While these tools expose existing bugs, they do not create new ones, and each bug fix can introduce new risks.
- The improvement of AI tools may lead to exponential bug detection growth, but achieving a bug-free state is uncertain.
- Tracking bug age, particularly vulnerabilities, can indicate progress toward eliminating bugs in software projects.
- Current data, such as from the curl project, shows no decline in bug fix rates or vulnerability age, suggesting we are far from zero bugs.
