OpenAI launches Patch the Planet to coordinate security vulnerability fixes

OpenAI has introduced Patch the Planet, a platform that uses AI agents to help coordinate responses to critical security vulnerabilities in open-source software. The tool connects security researchers, software maintainers, and incident responders to streamline the process of identifying and fixing vulnerabilities across the open-source ecosystem.

The platform appears designed to reduce delays in vulnerability disclosure and patching by automating coordination and communication between the parties involved in the fix process.
