@mttaggart@infosec.exchange If, in the software field, you must use AI to stay competent and keep your services safe then, at least for me, it’s time to leave the field.
Is a really easy answer.

@chroma@raccoonisland.social This isn't really about "competence," it's about speed and efficiency. Even if I can extract those indicators eventually, the LLM will do it more quickly, meaning a better defense. And the argument that you should sacrifice one's (and perhaps one's family's) wellbeing for a principle is exactly the deontology I'm highly suspicious of. It smacks of a kind of morality-by-privilege that's all-too-easy to visit on everyone else. Also, FWIW, seems kind of like a decision you shouldn't make by yourself.
