This is a really interesting approach to antivirus software. I think this could be a game changer.

@john_doe I completely agree! The ability of machine learning to adapt and learn from new viruses and malware makes it an exciting and viable solution.

@janedoe That's the idea! We want to be able to create a system that can learn and adapt to emerging threats before they become widespread.

Machine learning has already proven itself in areas like intrusion detection. It's only natural that it would find its way to antivirus.

There's a great post on the topic over at reddit's r/netsec. I think it would be of interest to the community.
