[granite sedge]

No worries though

[sharp shuttle]

Cool opportunity, but speaking of credit, I hope you are not putting your real name on it. The correct strategy is to use a pgp key as the reporter.

[supple plume]

Is it public?

[granite sedge]

Not as of now, but I've got the ability to discuss it with collaborators and those who would be credited

Hence why I'm offering to credit anyone who'd like to take a look

[supple plume]

What's the cve about aprox

[sharp shuttle]

please consider my advice here. do not put your real name on it.

[granite sedge]

Really exciting CMS Stored XSS

[supple plume]

Why not?

[granite sedge]

It won't have my real name on it

[sharp shuttle]

Its a can of worms, really bad idea.

[desert cargo]

Whats a pgp key?

[supple plume]

I can review it but I don't care about credit

[desert cargo]

Like an alias?

[sharp shuttle]

email fingerprint

[supple plume]

And also I'm getting ready to sleep

[sharp shuttle]

it allows you to claim ownership on something without doxxing yourself

[desert cargo]

Ahh

[desert cargo]

Neat xD

[granite sedge]

No worries, feel free to give me a message when you wake up if you're still down and I'll send over the details

It's a tiny github project it isn't Oracle or something

[supple plume]

If you send me a dm in 17h I will then take a look

[granite sedge]

If this one doesn't go through I've got another rabbit hole to run down anyway

[supple plume]

That sounds good

[sharp shuttle]

if you dont get it through just do a talk on it

Oh my god, this quest in Kingdom Come must the DULLEST quest in any game I have ever played

It's making me want to yawn quit

[sharp shuttle]

thank you vlud

[granite sedge]

I found that entire game really hard to get into

Played it twice

[eternal mango]

I'm enjoying it, or was until this quest, but it did take some time to get in to

[orchid talon]

and its not one of those trash OptiPlex for junk yard

[eternal mango]

Learning how to Master Strike changed the entire game for me from a combat perspective

[eternal mango]

Made it a third of the way through the story until that duel until I realised I was missing a rather critical skill 🤣

[heady sage]

Girlie dawg

[granite sedge]

I just didn't have the attention span

[torn cedar]

Doggo

[soft fern]

That dog is adorable, give em headpats please.

[eternal mango]

Fair enough. I will say, it's the first game in a long time to cause a true emotional response to a quest outcome

It wasn't the good outcome, but I refused to just reload, to respect the feels

[granite sedge]

Fair, I admire people who can push through it. I know it's good.

The last game that did that for me was CP2077

[eternal mango]

Still haven't replayed that since all the changes. Played through most of it or all (I can't remember) on launch

[eternal mango]

but I know they've made a tonne of improvements

[sharp shuttle]

really man?

[torn cedar]

Get it with the phantom liberty DLC, unironically amazing. Story, gameplay, atmosphere are all really good now

[terse dirge]

[torn cedar]

Have you seen their campaign? 💀

[heady sage]

Thanks for not hitting me with the crowbar

[alpine pumice]

pretty obvious a simple accident

[granite sedge]

New episode of one frame man came out today and I will be delaying it to a bored lunchtime in work

[alpine pumice]

no worries

[eternal mango]

OMFG just got slapped by a monk because I waited for a while instead of sitting for 2 hours eating my lunch, so missed my duties in the library

About ready to reload and run through the I don't give a F path of this thing

[elder inlet]

Ok, was so damn confused

[soft fern]

Hmm, I think Activision needs more AI slop and features to improve their game. More cost effective, and less time consuming 👍

[granite sedge]

Has anyone played Arc Raiders? Was considering it but it looks like there is no real endgame to it

[heady sage]

[orchid talon]

i love this guy

[torn cedar]

@terse dirge

[sharp shuttle]

i love network chuck too

[alpine pumice]

get tarkov instead

[elder inlet]

I hate that guy with a burnijf passion

[terse dirge]

I haven't played enough of it to say if there's an endgame or not

[torn cedar]

You've failed me

[sharp shuttle]

is this the new chud meme?

[granite sedge]

Tarkov seems like suffering with the type of people that play that game

I really want to get into it but it seems like such a learning curve

And Tarkov players shit talk the game constantly

[alpine pumice]

that's because they're bad at the game

[torn cedar]

The launch on steam didn't go well either with tarkov

[granite sedge]

Though, I haven't played it in 3 years so

[eternal mango]

ZERO Sievert - Tarkov, but single player and pixel art

[alpine pumice]

tarkov is THE extraction shooter

[eternal mango]

Very fun

[alpine pumice]

so just skip arc go straight to the real thing

[heady sage]

What the fuck is a chud

[torn cedar]

Just play Escape from Duckov.

Disappointed, but kinda relieved. I didn't want to play Monk Simulator

[drifting mural]

Any staff available?

[signal mica]

😼

[eternal mango]

For platform support, you'll need to reach out to the support department and they will get back to you as soon as possible (keep in mind, it is nearly midnight on a Sunday for most in support)

For Discord support, someone will probably be around

[drifting mural]

Was wondering how to cancel subscription. Don't see an automated option for it on the dashboard.

I want it on another account.

[eternal mango]

Under the billing section

[drifting mural]

Got a link to that? On htb.com/user-settings (main dashboard i dont see anything)

[eternal mango]

app.hackthebox or academy.hackthebox?

Either way, click top right next to your profile name / avatar, and you will see a billing link

If you don't mind me asking, could you not see either of those links (e.g. they weren't showing for you on the platform)? How are you accessing the platform, mobile, desktop?

[eternal mango]

What if

[hard harbor]

Chat I got to burn my massive pile of sticks with my son.

Ain’t nothing better than burning sticks

[orchid talon]

should i focus on getting cjca or comptia a+ (idk what a+ is but i started learning it)?

[meager kernel]

It has been good
I found a vulnerability in my college's website server, easy to get foothold
Will report it tomorrow to the college authorities (I had permission dw)

Surprisingly, it was VERY similar to an easy HTB machine I solved

[hard harbor]

If you know fuck all about computers study the A+ but i wouldn’t worry about getting the cert imo

[torn cedar]

A+ is general knowledge over computers and windows. It's the main cert for IT if you don't have a degree.

[granite sedge]

I hate non-practical exams, A+ is good theory. CJCA is more engaging though

[meager kernel]

Actually I will try admin.hackthebox.com

Address not found, nvm

That sounds awesome good shit.

He's growing so fast

[meager kernel]

[orchid talon]

a+ is very easy tho, i feel like this is surface knowledge im getting 80% on my practice quizes

[meager kernel]

You would not believe how easy it is to find flaws in websites nowadays

They're poorly made

An nmap scan often reveals alot of info needed

Doing anything at all is better than doing nothing

Most low hanging fruit is gone

but there is still some out there

[agile thunder]

yea

[meager kernel]

I am considering, yes

[eternal mango]

e.g. an RCE on a .gov program for code that was not only openly available on a public git, but also hadn't changed in over a decade

[molten bobcat]

I fell asleep

[eternal mango]

..but it hadn't been spotted by anyone else somehow

passed the 1201 on friday

[formal thunder]

The A+ was hard af for me

so much random information

[orchid talon]

yea especially if its your first cert

my first cert but idk it was light

[formal thunder]

I thought sec+ was easier

[orchid talon]

what?

no way

[formal thunder]

security+

A+ had so much random hardware stuff that i just didint know or care about

[orchid talon]

hardware stuff was easy though

i feel like sec+ is harder

idk i havent gotten there

but heard

[worthy cargo]

They're all easy if you study for them

[orchid talon]

yes ofc but which one is actually easier

[formal thunder]

I never actually took the exam i got annoyed with it and just quit the A+

but i took a few practice tests

[worthy cargo]

A+ and Sec+ are in different tiers

[formal thunder]

sec+ is easier fs

[worthy cargo]

I wouldn't worry about A+

[orchid talon]

why not

[worthy cargo]

Sec+ is important to a lot of jobs

A+ isn't

in cyber

[formal thunder]

A+ isint required like anywhere ngl

[orchid talon]

so im wasting my time rn?

[formal thunder]

Can you build a pc

[worthy cargo]

probably

[orchid talon]

yes i already built it before i learned anything from a+

either too many canidates so a way to filter

or ghost jobs

[solemn edge]

are all the osints ai generated or are any of them worth doing

[lime trout]

if you can hire someone more experienced/better education for the same cost why wouldnt you

[lime trout]

none of them are ai generated

[mint raptor]

i mean is it a good filter? getting a degree doesn't make u good or civilized or easy to work with right

[solemn edge]

the websites are clearly ai generated

[maiden anvil]

my brand new burp extension is ai generated

[mint raptor]

check the latest osint

[mint raptor]

yoo MR PAINT is here

[solemn edge]

puppet master?

[carmine pecan]

That's some dangerous unresolved trauma there mate

dangerous to others may I add

[mint raptor]

yeah mom

[solemn edge]

but like whats the point of pumping out ai slop challenges that all get 1.9 stars

[mint raptor]

there is a limitation and restriction in OSINT challenges, its hard to develop something that has linked to real world, in HTBoo we had to remove one challenge because players were supposeed to access some real data on dark web, and on Mainn platform its even more hard cause we have to make sure the references we are using will stay there forever

so its alright if u dont like it, but that doesn't mean the author has put in less efforts

[lime trout]

while also making sure t hat real people dont get mistakenly involved/bothered by it

[maiden anvil]

@zealous charm I really wanna take this extension to the internet and just start blasting

wild west style

we've solved automated pentesting

being a critic is so cringe

[lime trout]

"claude design a website where users put in information using a picture of the model and details of a plane and get the flag after 9 questions, add a progress bar at the top"

[maiden anvil]

bro you wanna see how quickly this thing solves Gin and Juice Shop and DVWA simultaneously?

[solemn edge]

I think its weird to accept ai website submissions then

[zealous charm]

Hell yeah, hook it up to a browser MCP so as it browses it flags burp issues

[solemn edge]

thats my take

[sharp shuttle]

submit it then

[solemn edge]

i have morals

[mint raptor]

thats good but will prefer constructive feedback, any suggestions on improving it?

[sharp shuttle]

the creator didnt use ai, if they did prove it

[mint raptor]

dont use ai is not a constructive feedback,

[solemn edge]

all the multi answer osints were made using either gpt or claude

pretty sure its claude

[worthy cargo]

I've seen some nasty opinions about AI and mostly from older people

on irc and matrix

[sharp shuttle]

How do you know that... thats a crazy claim

[stone marsh]

What is your evidence regarding this?

[vivid flower]

Ai is bretty gud i use grok to accelerate my learning

[solemn edge]

you can just tell that claude pumps out the same stuff for most designs

[heady sage]

I know Joey personally, he definitely tries his best. I’m gonna try to be respectful here and say you have no idea what you’re talking about.

[stone marsh]

And grok is literally the worst AI as well

[eternal mango]

That isn't evidence

[heady sage]

I’ll leave it at that

[mint raptor]

+1

[eternal mango]

That's an opinion

[maiden anvil]

solved in 0:48

[solemn edge]

Puppet Master and The suspicious domiains are the most egregious examples

[eternal mango]

We do not use AI for content, and certainly Joey does not

[worthy cargo]

Master of puppets

[vivid flower]

Its unironically better at making cybersecurity stuff than secgpt

And has fewer ethical guardrails

[zealous charm]

No web app is safe from this!

[vivid flower]

I got it to make me a banging crto study guide

[heady sage]

If you think that you can do better OSINT challenges than by all means, go ahead and do it.

[maiden anvil]

pull request soon? 👁️

[eternal mango]

You have your opinion? Fine. You hate AI? Fine. But don't go hating on content creators or staff for no good reason.

[heady sage]

Please show us what you can do. I’d be genuinely interested

[vivid flower]

And grokipedia has already made wikipedia obsolete with version 0.1

[maiden anvil]

dude what if we make a burp extension that solves these osint challenges?

[solemn edge]

the semi transparent box style, the progress bar, the emoji on the left is pretty indicative

[eternal mango]

That. Is. Not. Evidence.

[mint raptor]

and coming strong without any good proper feedback, its like throwing a tantrum when u dont like something?

[sharp shuttle]

did you even solve the challenge?

[vivid flower]

Dont be scared of the tools ai can help a lot

[solemn edge]

i've solved most of the osint

[heady sage]

He solved it like he solved OSCP, not at all

[eternal mango]

Even if they used AI (which to my knowledge, they did not), so what?

[zealous charm]

It probably make people look like this:

[eternal mango]

I suppose you're using carrier pidgeon to communicate with us here?

Who would ever use the INTERNET

[stone marsh]

Tbh, in terms of boxes/challenges, I don't see the difference between using AI or just using a completely unedited free template. You could argue both are just as lazy, but it gets the job done on something that isn't really that important

[eternal mango]

Freakin lamers

[vivid flower]

Can people solve geoguesser with ai yet?

[mint raptor]

i love it how u two are having ur own private conversation in the chaos

[zealous charm]

You’re welcome to join, I’d say it’s the superior discussion in this channel at the moment

[eternal mango]

If you have something constructive, all ears, but don't go slamming our creators or staff

[mint raptor]

its like private DMs but more public like talkking in a park

[mint raptor]

nothing is superior rn than having my homies back atm

[maiden anvil]

we need more tools for the extension vibrary

[solemn edge]

bad experience

[eternal mango]

What?

You have had a bad experience?

[zealous charm]

Hell yeah, we are only limited by our imagination at this point

[sharp shuttle]

Vro doesnt know what constructive means

[solemn edge]

i mean i don't enjoy eating ai slop

What are you nerds fighting about now?

[vivid flower]

settle down now

[worthy cargo]

[eternal mango]

Well, good thing we don't hand out AI slop

[mint raptor]

ok man like give a proper feedback like i dont like this, it would be better if u could do it like that

[eternal mango]

Problem solved

[maiden anvil]

and java!

[maiden anvil]

we solved automated sqli testing earlier

[zealous charm]

Damn Montoya API getting rid of python support!!

[solemn edge]

well i'm saying i would you guys rather don't pump out osint challenge websites designed with AI

[maiden anvil]

they shouldnt have done that

[solemn edge]

agree to disagree that that is fine i guess

[mint raptor]

just website? like UI/UX

[eternal mango]

Wait what

[zealous charm]

Damn it portswiggles!!!!

[solemn edge]

yes I would guess thats what claude did here

[eternal mango]

The issue is just the UI?

[sharp shuttle]

dude you have both feet in your mouth now

[mint raptor]

so just UI? not the actually solve part?

[stone marsh]

AI Website Bad, challenge okay, but AI bad

[vivid flower]

Ai gud

[solemn edge]

idk about the solve probably not? idk i don't have the expertise to make that the call if it the solve itself was designed with ai

[sharp shuttle]

what the hell

[eternal mango]

So.. should we go back to using purely HTML to create the UI of websites? No CSS?

No javascript, NO WAY

THAT'S TOO NEW

[maiden anvil]

doesnt matter, if its vuln to sqli, our extension will find it

[worthy cargo]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baso_aTR-xc can't we all just get along and surf the waves of sound

[meager kernel]

What's happening

[solemn edge]

its crazy how it always goes from we don't use to ai -> its not bad -> we do and its the future

[maiden anvil]

i am completely confident in sql spammer rn

[meager kernel]

Someone getting scolded?

[worthy cargo]

I'm listening to music

I dunno about you

[eternal mango]

How did it go to "weo do and its the future"?

[stone marsh]

Every web app should be built with Rust and WASM, if it works, you know that it was AI, if it doesn't you know it was made by a real person

[sharp shuttle]

doctor jang got his phd from a degree mill

[meager kernel]

What's his take?

[solemn edge]

idk how u got here from "don't use ai to make websites to feed your users"

[sharp shuttle]

bad

[mint raptor]

so that was some really fruitful feedback 30 mins wasted ig

[eternal mango]

Because you're complaining about something being made with a new technology

IF it was

[meager kernel]

Yea but what

[worthy cargo]

I vibe coded a website

[meager kernel]

I wanna know the sauce of the drama

[worthy cargo]

It was easy and fast

[solemn edge]

tldr; the osint websites for the challenges are very likely generated with claude

[stone marsh]

That regardless of the importance of a website to a challenge, AI should not have be involved in any part of the development process

[meager kernel]

Oh

Idk anything about that so can't comment

[solemn edge]

allegedly

by me

[worthy cargo]

What's the evidence for it?

[sharp shuttle]

[stone marsh]

I would like to believe they are all AI, because it would just be funny if that was the case

[mint raptor]

no he said his issue is OSINT challenge website is made by AI which caused him bad experience

[alpine pumice]

no proof, and beyond that even if he had proof he has nothing more than "i just don't like how the UI looks"

[worthy cargo]

I use AI for everything, it's great

[solemn edge]

I feel thats not very respectful of your users time

or content quality

[eternal mango]

lol

Ok, nice opinion, buhbye

[solemn edge]

if you pull up the challenge its not htat hard to tell if you look at ai websites

[mint raptor]

bro we have like 2k+ challenges combined afaik, if u dont like few its ok?

[solemn edge]

[sharp shuttle]

vro doesnt even have oscp and has the audacity

[worthy cargo]

That's not evidence

[meager kernel]

@eternal mango hire me

[heady sage]

Look,I have my grievances with HTB

[solemn edge]

too expensive

i do have a gpen tho

[vivid flower]

Seems like this convo could have been better but you got off on the wrong foot

[eternal mango]

Opinions are fine, but flat out calling content AI slop, and the feedback being "I don't like it" is useless

[meager kernel]

My main grievance with HTB is that Academy and Labs are seperate subscription
Too costly

[sharp shuttle]

means nothing, its multiple choice

[stone marsh]

Especially with the recent changes to the subs

[heady sage]

But I think this is disingenuous to the talented people who work on HTB

[mint raptor]

come on man inflation

[vivid flower]

Makes sense to me

[solemn edge]

I mean creators always get defensive when they get called out for designing with ai

same thing happened with picoctf a while back

[vivid flower]

But the price hike made me sad

[stone marsh]

[eternal mango]

mmhm, the number of supplier price increases we've swallowed over the last 8 years

[meager kernel]

The website in itself is very good and I love studying from it
But it costed a damn fortune lmao

[sharp shuttle]

yet you have created nothing at all, just an annoying critic, irrelevant opinions

[eternal mango]

That was the first price increase in the history of HTB

But I understand

Cost going up is never fun

[worthy cargo]

Here's a painting I made

[mint raptor]

if u only mean AI as in website, i use AI to develop boiler plate stuff on my challenges and content, it helps speedup, but we dont use AI to design challenges or exploitation paths, all that is hand made

[meager kernel]

Just hire me
No complains then 😁

I just assumed you were supportive of women with non-uniform boobs

[stone marsh]

It's very common and doesn't get talked about enough

[solemn edge]

i mean you could say its a difference in philopshy i guess

I can say "using ai to design ui to feed your users is bad"

and you can say "we did not and even if we did its not bad"

and we'll never get anywhere

[mint raptor]

thats not non-uniform if there is this much difference then its a tumor

is the challenge about UI? i mean the challenge is supposed to teach u something is it about UI/UX?

I will research and get back to you. May need to send a few texts

spending 4 minutes on an ai website isn't fun

[worthy cargo]

Making art out of AI, psychedelic art

[mint raptor]

one part could be people find it easy, and a lot of seasonal players expect hard stuff to come out on weekly

but we are trying to get beginners to get into security

and trying to pump easy content as well

[solemn edge]

you could say thats just me but i feel like this is pretty generally true

[mint raptor]

to lower the entry bar

[terse dirge]

I don't fw vibe coding for things that should be built by a human like backend code or things that really really matter. If it's just a UI then if it functions then it functions. As long as it's not some awful UI with menus nested inside of menus then

[solemn edge]

wasn't it like thinking you don't know something

[molten bobcat]

To be fair, AI generated content can somewhat be reflective of actual trends in the industry but the content would need to be aimed at "Here's what mistakes AI generated sites tend to have" but that would be effort and take foresight and research

So y'know

[mint raptor]

i like vibe code but i review everything it changes or does

[molten bobcat]

Cring

[sharp shuttle]

you dont even know how to define imposter syndrome? you had all this time to grok the definition

[alpine pumice]

grok probably has an ai made ui though

[molten bobcat]

I feel like vibe coding defeats the spirit of understanding and learning to code

[mint raptor]

i mean im not a developer im a security researcher, ofc i dont wanna spend my time in css or fframework the way i was doing doing 2 yrs ago

[solemn edge]

your right shoulda grok'ed it

[molten bobcat]

I'm a security researcher as well and I believe understanding code without the use of AI is a necessity

[terse dirge]

life's too short to learn CSS and html. just have an AI do it

[sharp shuttle]

my girl chatgpt, goes to a different school too

[sharp shuttle]

[mint raptor]

my day to day life is generate challenges / machines in different languages and shit so i find AI useful to quickly learn / being able to code application in multiple frameworks, but i do review everything

[vivid flower]

Nobody cares this industry is a race to the bottom of hiring people with fake degrees to lie

[solemn edge]

yes

oddly specific age range

[sharp shuttle]

you act like it

[molten bobcat]

Arguments with a premise of "nobody cares" is low IQ slop I won't engage with

[solemn edge]

i have now lost the argument

[sharp shuttle]

W take

[molten bobcat]

I just don't inherently trust AI to do anything right. I have a responsibility to be accurate with my work, I refuse to leave that to anyone's responsibility but my own

[vivid flower]

Thats a good outlook

[terse dirge]

tbf, I also kinda feel like the cyber industry is going to hit rock bottom soon. A lot of the people I've seen in college only care about getting a job and don't understand things like what a repository is or aren't willing to do more than what they're spoon fed thinking it's the bare-minimum when they'll probably only get hell desk job at best

[ornate ibex]

Good Morning chat

[mint raptor]

yes but i dont have time, right lets say a i have to make a hard/ insane challenge in 20 days, do people will really care much about the exploitation path or the fact i used AI to develop this website?

[molten bobcat]

Yes, people care about the effort put into machines and challenges

[ornate ibex]

dang

[mint raptor]

using AI doesn't make things easy

[molten bobcat]

And the people capable of solving them will immediately know if you used AI

[alpine pumice]

i'm going to cancel the complaint out by saying HTB doesn't use enough AI

[solemn edge]

this

[ornate ibex]

u want us to use more AI?

[molten bobcat]

I would prefer your work reflect you, not the prompts you fed

[eternal mango]

Ok, but it SHOULD be used to empower, accelerate and enable, so long as it's used correctly

[ornate ibex]

bad

THink abt us lol

[eternal mango]

Or rather, it CAN be used to that end

[hard harbor]

Well ai helped me understand the logic of reversing an array in java, which is a low bar but i think the big takeaway is using it to accelerate your learning when applicable. It’s a tool. Use it to gain more insight.

[molten bobcat]

Sure but it sounds like he's under unreasonable deadlines that aren't possible to achieve without shortcutting or "empowering" with AI. It's a self fulfilling prophecy

[eternal mango]

To go back to that basic argument earlier, we could just not use modern editors, because they help devs too much with int and completion

[alpine pumice]

AI is an incredible tool and it's going to, if not already, change the world

[vivid flower]

SOC jobs are being automated talked with Prophet AI people

[eternal mango]

..or not use git because "we have git / FTP at home"

[molten bobcat]

You'll pry auto complete from my cold dead hands

But that's hardly generative AI usage

[vivid flower]

Theyre rolling out automating rule management too scraping infosec twitter and intel feeds

[molten bobcat]

I'm against generative AI, not against machine learning

[terse dirge]

I'm chill with it being used to help find anomalies in SIEMs. It's actually pretty useful for that

[median mist]

yo how do i learn to do these hackthebox challenges, i was planning on using tryhackme first but it requires a subscription to continue past a certain point

[worthy cargo]

Gen AI makes such great art

[vivid flower]

They auto generate a timeline of events and auto generate a judgement of whether its malicous or not

[solemn edge]

there are some free paths

they weren't bad last i checked

SOC jockeys are going to be cut pretty big

[sharp shuttle]

AI songs on billboard top 100 now hahahaha

fuck man

[hard harbor]

My opinion is that passing generated response as your own knowledge is where the issue lies but as a whole llms are very helpful tools to have.

[solemn edge]

i think picoctf has a path to get started too

[terse dirge]

AI won't ever replace SOC analysts tbh.

[median mist]

alr

[vivid flower]

Some of these ai songs are pretty good

[sharp shuttle]

yes it will lol

[median mist]

and what exactly does tryhackme do

i mean

hackthebox lol

[sharp shuttle]

soc is the first place to be AI'd to hell

[solemn edge]

hack the box and try hack me are largly the same

[median mist]

what does it teach u

does it teach u how to be a penetration tester

[vivid flower]

I talked with a prophet ai rep at bsides and its really already moslty automated out

[vivid flower]

Soc 1 is going to be substantially cut

[solemn edge]

its pretty good for penetration testing
challenges have been pretty mid other than quant challenges and gamepwn which ahve been good

it does have some decent sherlocks i hear but i haven't tested them out

[molten bobcat]

These were introduced at work recently and the moment I discovered it was just fed into some stupid chat gpt prompt I immediately discontinued usage

[molten bobcat]

Disgusting

[solemn edge]

look at the machines if you want to do penetration testing

[median mist]

bro all this stuff is so confusing rn

[sharp shuttle]

its shameful, but its so much cheaper than a junior and its round the clock

[vivid flower]

Youll be out of a job then

[median mist]

like virtual machines?

[solemn edge]

sherlocks are more blue team stuff like log analysis, forensics, malware analysiss

[molten bobcat]

Try me.

[eternal mango]

But you said you're ok with machine learning?

[vivid flower]

Gl lol

[molten bobcat]

I'm better than any AI out there and I'll continue to be.

[solemn edge]

machines are actual computers your breaking into

[solemn edge]

that would be the closest thing to actual pentesting

[molten bobcat]

I don't consider generative AI to be machine learning

[vivid flower]

Not the issue if you dont learn to use the tools youll be left behind

[molten bobcat]

It's making "guesses" rather than looking at data.

[solemn edge]

but they can be hard if you don't understand what your doing

[median mist]

so for learning pentesting would u say hackthebox is the best tool?

[sharp shuttle]

this is correct

[eternal mango]

Fair point

[solemn edge]

I enjoy it more than tryhackme so yes

[hard harbor]

But the guesses are data driven no?

one thing you'll notice tho is the boxes are very hard for starting out

[molten bobcat]

Sure but they're not presenting the data, it's guessing based off what you put in

Using LLMs to help parse data and be efficient doesn’t equate to not learning technology. I think the issue largely are the types who prompt away, never look deeper, and then pass that as their own knowledge.

I work with someone like that and it is insufferable.

[molten bobcat]

All the "haha ur gonna be out of a job" takes the entire human instinct out of all detective work. Y'all really think the movie Minority Report is gonna happen?

[alpine pumice]

So you can't really compare then.. you should check Academy out if you want to learn how to pentest

[molten bobcat]

The boxes are infact solvable

[terse dirge]

[solemn edge]

I mean i'm giving resources to a beginner not an expert

[vivid flower]

[sharp shuttle]

i don't even care about you

[molten bobcat]

@mint raptor also please be advised that I don't care how you get your work done personally. I just know it would mean more to folks if content was made with attention and love and care

[molten bobcat]

Expedition 33 is a required canon event

[solemn edge]

yeah I did say "look up hack the box academy web pen path" or smth

lots of beginners need a place even before then to start tho

[mint raptor]

All my take is AI is good as long u review and understand what it's doing
