My impression from the last 20 years of being Serious in my computer touching interest is that systems, for the most part, are going to be vulnerable, but that it is not impossible or wasted effort to attempt to get rid of entire classes of potential vulns by good craftmanship and theoretical guarantees.
LLMs, in this context, are mega-fuzzing tools, and the best defense against such attacks is just that. If you can prove that edge-facing code is secure, no fuzzing will help.
