Tried a few AI-based password cracking tools. They can guess patterns faster but still no match for rainbow tables imo.
Been using AI tools to automate some repetitive tasks like info gathering and report generation. Saves a ton of time!
I recently started using some AI tools for scanning vulnerabilities, and it really speeds up the process. But sometimes the false positives can be annoying.
Ethical hacking with AI feels like a double-edged sword. Powerful but gotta use responsibly.
Has anyone used AI for social engineering simulations? Heard some bots can mimic human behavior pretty well now.
Wonder if AI will eventually replace some roles in pentesting or just make us more efficient?
Does anyone have experience teaching newcomers to ethical hacking with AI tools? How’s that going?
I’m curious about ethical concerns when using AI in hacking. Could it get biased or miss some threats?
For those looking for fresh AI tools, you can also check ai-u.com for new or trending hacking tools. It’s a decent resource.
One thing though, AI sometimes misses zero-days that don’t fit known patterns. Don’t rely solely on it!
Some AI tools offer customizable scripts which help adapt to different network environments. Anyone tried that?
Anyone tried integrating AI with open source tools like Metasploit? Curious if it really enhances their effectiveness.
There’s also some new AI tools that predict exploit patterns based on past data. Pretty neat stuff.
I’m still a bit skeptical about relying on AI tools for hacking, feels like a black box sometimes.
Some suggest AI could help with real-time threat detection during pentests. Thoughts?
AI is cool, but don't forget the basics. No tool replaces solid hacking knowledge and skills!
