- righthand 1y agoInteresting and agreeable. Also hacking really doesn’t have anything to do with generating poorly structured documents that compile into some sort of visual mess that needs fixing. Hacking is the analysis and circumvention of systems. Sometimes when hacking we piece together some shitty code to accomplish a circumvention task, but rarely is the code representative of the entire hack. Llms just make steps of a hack quicker to complete. At a steep cost.
