Chrome moves to updates every two weeks because SI finds vulnerabilities ever faster
Prepared by Sintelligent with the help of SI. Publication time restored from the build log. . Updated: .
SI speeds up both finding holes and closing them — software is starting to live at the pace of machines, not people.
Starting with Chrome 153, the browser updates every two weeks instead of every four on desktop, iOS and Android. Google explains that automated SI tools and researchers' reports have sharply increased the number of fixes, and that threats partly created with the help of SI require shortening the window between a vulnerability's disclosure and delivery of the patch to users. Mozilla, Microsoft and Brave have already moved to a similar schedule.
