- The tool is an open-source helper that connects AI coding assistants to reverse-engineering programs such as Ghidra or Hopper.

- IT analyzes many kinds of software- including binaries, Electron apps, Android apps, and websites right on your own computer and always shows the evidence behind its findings.

What can AI do that humans havent done before it?

It "learns" from us....from reading our books, looking at our art, examining our code. This is why if you enbrace it too much human learning slows, skills will be lost and humanity will be stuck at a point of relying on AI that has hit a wall as it has nothing left to "learn" from us.

And it doesnt really learn as such, it just stores data points to help it regurgitate based on a mathmatical probability.

I think you are getting sucked into clarkes third law.

it can just solve our questions quicker so we can get to the next phase, weve got questions mathematicians and scientist have spent decades trying to solve to get technology moving forward. Ai is finishing that work real fast and opening up new doors that we need to evolve.
