Does AI fit well in trying to reason about the structure of a decompiled project when you lack symbol names? This isn’t my wheelhouse but I was surprised just how well AI could figure out the intent of the structure of some JavaScript where I had no source maps.

AI is superhuman at reading and understanding assembly, it doesn't care much about if it's decompiled or has symbols, that just makes it a bit slower. In some cases it can even understand heavily obfuscated control flow directly without using tools.
