As I mentioned, all kernel major releases have cve bumps, because (also mentioned) new kernel releases have new features and drivers.
The bump itself doesn’t show that ai is associated with more CVEs, because that bump is present after every kernel major release. It would have been better to show the bumps from previous releases to demonstrate the volume ai tools are helping to find.

By “bump” you mean the quadrupling of CVEs being addressed?

That’s not how the version numbers for the Linux kernel work. 7.0 is the release that follows 6.19, they are both new mainline releases in the exact same way, and the first number increasing doesn’t mean anything.
