Infosec is already a discipline plagued with tools that are useless at best and harmful at most when users don’t have background knowledge into what they’re securing.

Hopefully there will still be enough people who do know what they’re doing to notice when the AI says the wrong thing confidently.

I've yet to come across any tooling where i've said "yeah, i'd rather use this than run my code against your API and do the things I want to do".

Like nearly everything else in tech, security becomes much more impactful when the practitioner understands computer science, architecture, distributed systems etc.
