AI tools help fix Bitcoin wallet bug but face challenges as OpenAI cuts access mid-audit

This AI-driven audit highlights the potential of AI in improving crypto security but also reveals challenges, such as OpenAI cutting off access to its tools mid-project, forcing the team to switch to alternatives. Despite many findings, coordinating fixes with maintainers remains slow, showing that identifying bugs is easier than getting them resolved.
