I wrote a blog post on the current trend of game decompilations using AI and where we’re going with this. It’s all very promising but oh boy are the implications scary.

    I don’t think it’s scary at all, but you do you.

    DRM free games exist and yet people still buy games. And even if a decompilation works and works well, it’s just the code, not the creative assets that would still be protected under law.

    I enjoy doing reverse engineering from time to time, and at least for now being scared about this is like being scared of what people can do thanks to ghidra.

    Dzuma is an interesting security minded fella on YouTube that has a balanced leaning positive view on what’s real and what’s hype. https://youtube.com/watch?v=DNS-4Wl7dY4

      as if anyone would care at this point since (nearly) everything’s stolen to train GenAI anyway.
