And when I hear "touts his experience with 'all facets of mergers and acquisitions' on his own LinkedIn page, including experience working with leading private equity firms" I know to run away *very fast*. It's at about the same danger-sign level as someone who "touts his experience with all facets of torturing puppies, including experience working with leading child slavery firms". How much do you not want to deal with a company run by this person?

This has been a problem for a long time. Many years ago when one of the very first vulnerability scanners was released it was written up as a conference paper. Two of the reviewers ran it on their own code, which they were familiar with and so could evaluate its effectiveness, and got 100% false positives. Not 90%, not 98%, 100.0% false positives. Despite their less-than-stellar reviews, it was accepted and went on to be given the best paper award. Reason being that when you ran it on typical code, not of the quality written by those two reviewers, it did actually find a lot of problems.

So if you're trying to hype your stock... ahh, promote your product, make sure you run it on not-very-good code where it'll get lots of results.

We've had AI slop reports in a project I contribute to. The first one we got was a security vulnerability report, "you're not protecting against X, you need to apply countermeasures", and then listed the recommended countermeasures, which was a rephrased copy of the list of countermeasures that we were already applying.

Things haven't improved since then, the only real change is that it's now a lot harder to pick holes in the slop than it was for that first one because the slop extruders are getting better at obfuscation.
