Why this article matters
David Noever's 2023 research tested GPT-4 against Snyk and Fortify on 128 vulnerable code snippets across 8 languages and 33 vulnerability categories. The results were striking: GPT-4 found roughly 4x more vulnerabilities (393 vs. 98) and its fixes reduced them by 90% with only an 11% code increase. This post walks through the methodology, presents the raw comparison tables, and discusses what LLM-powered self-auditing means for the future of secure development pipelines.
