Open source has been the single greatest accelerator of productivity in modern software development. As AI reshapes how software is built, and attacked, the priority is clear: we must use AI to reduce friction for maintainers, not create more work. Today, maintainers face a surge of AI-generated vulnerability reports that risks overwhelming the very people who sustain the global software supply chain. This keynote examines how the open source community (OpenSSF in particular) is turning AI from a source of noise into a force multiplier for defenders.


Jamie Thomas will highlight how maintainer-centered AI tooling, shared standards, and practical security techniques are being applied to restore balance at scale. These efforts focus on making security more actionable, automated, and sustainable, ensuring open source remains a resilient, trusted foundation for global innovation.


Join us as we outline a roadmap for systemic resilience, where the global community puts cutting-edge AI capabilities directly into the hands of maintainers to secure the software on which we all depend.
