    And then AI IS used to exploit it. People are using artificial intelligence to reverse engineer patches for security meaning they can perfectly Target the security flaw that hasn’t been fully patched out.

    Used to be a time when you had a leg between fighting a security vulnerability and fully patching it. That’s gone.

    Now thanks to this PHP flaw, you can go to your local Mom and pops pizza parlor to order a pizza and be infected with some sort of virus or malware.

    😅 Fun times.

    This headline makes me wanna puke, but to be fair ChatGPT made the music player i always wanted. And i used Sol Light. Made 2.0 with Astra and it gave me dmg. But Sol Light built the house. Astra is more like the interior decorator. Man does my $20 bucks plan feel subsidized. Enjoy it while it lasts.
