LLM privacy policies keep getting longer, denser, and nearly impossible to decode

People expect privacy policies to explain what happens to their data. What users get instead is a growing wall of text that feels harder to read each year. In a new study, researchers reviewed privacy policies for LLMs and traced how they changed. Poli… Continue reading LLM privacy policies keep getting longer, denser, and nearly impossible to decode

LLM vulnerability patching skills remain limited

Security teams are wondering whether LLMs can help speed up patching. A new study tests that idea and shows where the tools hold up and where they fall short. The researchers tested LLMs from OpenAI, Meta, DeepSeek, and Mistral to see how well they cou… Continue reading LLM vulnerability patching skills remain limited
