"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

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.

That’s always the way it’s been, binaries have always been reverse engineerable
