Hey folks, I've been thinking about how AI is shaping the way we approach pen testing projects coming up in 2025. It feels like things are gonna change big time. Anyone else got cool insights or experiences with this? Would love to hear how you see AI tools evolving in this space!

Sometimes I think we get too hyped up on AI and forget the basics. Good old manual testing still has its place.
With all these AI tools coming up, I wonder if it'll make security jobs easier or just shift the challenge elsewhere.
Anyone worried about AI tools being exploited by hackers to create better attacks?
I read somewhere that by 2025, AI might even auto-generate exploits based on discovered weaknesses. Scary but fascinating.
One cool thing to watch is how AI can help simulate social engineering attacks more realistically in pen tests.
Looking forward to seeing more open-source AI projects in pen testing. Makes it accessible to more people.
Been experimenting with AI-driven vulnerability scanners and they catch a ton of stuff quickly. Still gotta verify manually tho.
I think AI will make collaboration easier by providing real-time insights during tests, anyone tried that?
I'm excited about how machine learning can predict attack vectors before they even happen. Kinda like having a crystal ball for security!
AI is definitely gonna speed up finding vulnerabilities. I mean, automation is great but I wonder if it might miss some complex stuff humans catch?
Imagine AI helping with zero-day vulnerability discovery in pen tests. Could change the game completely.
Are there any communities or sources where we can keep track of new AI pen testing tools? Always looking to stay updated.
How do you think AI will affect compliance testing in pen testing projects? Will it simplify reports?
Has anyone tried any AI-based pen testing tools? Curious if they’re actually reliable or just hype atm.
I'm curious about the learning curve for new pen testers using AI tools. Does it make it easier or more complex?
For those using AI tools, how do you handle data privacy? Pen testing often deals with sensitive info.
