How are you protecting yourself against the imminent AI dooms zero day?

Above all this is a fun discussion. Don't get too serious :)


As LLMs get better and better at pattern matching against vulnerabilities, and gaining better logical inference, it's a matter of time until a human or a group of humans and an LLM(s) find a plethora of zero days, some possibly unpatchable.

I'm sure others have thought the same, so I'm curious just what the general zeitgeist is. I personally think any machine you haven't put online, like those 10 year old laptops in the closest, are safe. The problem is, I believe airgap will not save us either if a truly advanced system is developed. More or less I think "primitive technology" could return in various ways depending what we're talking about, like in finance, to avoid manipulation.
