This is actually a good concrete example of how to use AI for pen testing (which I've never had time to look at, so I realise it may be common). The issue I'm struggling with is cost - to point O4.6 at network logs, and have it explore...how may tokens/money do you burn?

How much would you pay a pen tester and/or appsec engineer to review your web app? I think it probably evens out.

(I’m not suggesting replacing either with opus, but just trying to put the cost into perspective)
