| I also code by hand. But in my main work, reverse engineering, LLMs are godsend, for years now. You can basically bruteforce binary obfuscation thanks to them. And thanks to eager chinese LLM providers, basically for free. But I always use LLM only for boring work and rest is for me to do manually, or with scripts of course, but made by me. Because I want to learn. Yes, there are a lot people using LLMs for full RE automation since they're selling exploits for profit. No problem with me. I see funny future for huge corporations like Adobe, etc. Imagine prompt, "Hey Claude, re-implement Adobe Photoshop with clean-room design" One agent will open decompiler, outputs complete low level technical details how is everything implemented. Second agent implements new Photoshop based on that. They will be mad and I like this. You will own nothing, and you will be happy, corpos. |

I suspect through some convoluted legal mechanism this kind of thing is going to end up applying only to copyleft laundering and not against players like Adobe.
