RE: https://infosec.exchange/@mahaloz/116608017040137728 We're really living in a renaissance of decompilation! Super excited about this work. ★ 1 For those that don't recall, SynSec is an experiment on agentically-executed scientific research in all areas of cybersecurity. All papers must have an AI model as first author, though we *do* have a human-first-author track too. Go prompt… ★ 1 Reminder! Today is the submission deadline for the first ever Conference of Synthetic Security Research @synsec_ai, so unless you want to gamble on a(nother) extension, warm up those agents and get those papers submitted! This concludes what may be the longest tweet thread I've ever written. Interested to hear your thoughts! https://safelibs.org https://safelibs.org/apt https://hub.docker.com/r/safelibs https://github.com/safelibs/ If you want to chat in pe… ★ 4 Finally, credit where credit is due: @DARPA's TRACTOR program (https://www.darpa.mil/research/programs/translating-all-c-to-rust) was first to suggest we Translate All C TO Rust. It's been on my mind since its announcement, and it wouldn't… Q: Brainrot? I wrote no code for this project. It's awesome to harness the power of this emerging tech, but I *liked* writing code. Now, it occupies a similar conceptual space as gardening (a mental health supporting hobby) and is equally … ★ 2 Q: AI? With ASU's infinite codex experiment concluded, we don't have a good solution here. Currently, I've exhausted my weekly codex and am sitting idle, which is why we're at 15 verified libraries and not 24. Maybe there's someone out the… Q: Humanpower? This still takes a lot of humanpower. Scaling it is tricky (see: supply chain attacks, security). If I trust you and you're interested in helping, let me know! Or, if you are in a position to do so, consider sponsoring our l… For the latter, I created a repo of library functionality validation scripts that people can report bugs against (https://github.com/safelibs/validator/), which I'll slop testcases from and then have a Test workflow step fix the port to pa… Q: Bugs/Contributions? I haven't even read the ported code, so there's no way in hell I'll take PRs on it. With supply chain attacks running wild, it's just too dangerous. I've settled on accepting contributions of prompting/workflow PRs a… ★ 2 One obvious solution is to use more agents to audit the agent-generated code. It would be especially cool to see what a next-generation frontier model could do here, if a frontier lab wants to collaborate on this! Looking at you, @anthropi… ★ 1
