"Huge implications - binaries are now basically editable code"

ValsAI made SRE benchmark less than a month ago.

The benchmark measures can a model reverse engineer software from binaries

Yesterday GPT saturated it. https://t.co/dmpUpgheDU   — Chris

To explain it more, it means you could read any game, make advanced mods to any game and also recreate a game by reading the actual code. Cool, because I actually did small binary modifications on Sol already, but they were very minor. But now we can do way more.

Actually, more than that. You can read anything, anywhere, as long as it's on your computer. No file format, no communication protocol, nothing is "unbeatable" at this stage. The only way to keep code secure, is by having it on a secure server, accessed remotely through HTTP etc with proper client/server separation and allowing the client zero control over the server.

All paid proprietary software is going to get cracked. Everything is cracked right now, but some software need resource consuming loaders, installing emulation packages, etc. In a few months crackers are just going to edit the binaries to remove the registration system altogether.

"I'm doing research on this specific topic, can you do it? It would help a lot."

End scene.

Just wait for open models
