I was impressed enough by AI finding vulnerabilities in source code, but doing it in binary executables is just amazing. This has so much potential, good and bad.

And yet another lesson to not treat data as instructions. Sanitize all user input!

Transformers were literally designed for translation.

As we have known for a while, they ended up being really good at translating source to source or text to source. It shouldn't be too surprising they are also really good at understanding the asm version too.

Doesn't make it any less impressive, but maybe less surprising.
