2d t-SNE plot showing clusters of similar bugs from firefox, based on what was fixed in the CVEs covering hundreds of bugs. gave Kimi 2.6 a list of bugs / commits that mention those bugs, and got it to create a CSV describing those bugs alongside the subsystem. I then ran a local embedding model (qwen3-embedding:4b) to produce embedding vectors for each bug description, which I used t-SNE to get a 2d embedding and plotted. works ok, though I am unsure of how good the bug descriptions are, kimi really struggled to do that well and I burnt a ton of tokens. there is clusters for JIT bugs, uaf (which is close to reference counting issues), IPC (so probably sbx related) are all close as well. code was all hand written, llms only for those pipeline tasks!
