Good reading on why the AI generated attack apocalypse is a little
truth and a lot of hype. Particularly relevant to recent discussion:

"This matters. A model that autonomously finds and exploits hundreds of
vulnerabilities with inhuman precision is a game changer, but a model
that generates thousands of false alarms and non-working attacks still
needs skilled and knowledgeable humans."

J. Random Scriptkiddie isn't a skilled or knowledgeable human.
