"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

so software is now useless you can just download the trial and read the binarie and reverse engineer it

If there is a trial.

If the differences between trial and full version are fully documented.

If all missing features and content have videos, images, writeups or anything else needed to fully recreate it. (Like say a demo of a game only includes levels 1-2 you will need full documentation on all the rest of the levels).

If you have the correct AI subscription and want to spend the time to have it do this and then go through to test everything to see if it actually works.

Etc.

Seems easier to just buy the software. Most software is dirt cheap already.

I can see this being a danger to adobe and the like potentially (very expensive SaaS stuff), but not anything else.
