Linux is open source - that gives the security AI tools an easier in - which is a bad thing, on the other hand it means that lots more vulns are being fixed.

Windows on the other hand is not, the same tools are going to find vulns in the binaries, but wont have an easy way to provide patches

Linux is going to get safer faster

Your comment would only be true in a world where Windows' developer wasn't a trillion dollar company fully able to spend just as much on tokens as those researchers did for Linux. They've likely been doing it since day 1, you just don't know about it as an outsider.

Your comment would only be true in a world where the trillion dollar company was not responsible from a RCE on paint :)
