Me and @piffey threat research into #CovidLock made it into Business Insider: https://t.co/gvafhdQ11C

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@cyb3rops Agreed 100%. There is going to be a big cliff in technical depth because people are going to lean too much on LLMs.

Also - the tech industry in general is way overhyping AI and people are buying into it.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@cyb3rops It’s amazing at the bottom and ceiling potential for AI/LLMs. They’re not a silver bullet whatsoever - but some tasks they can make an impact. They’re super nuanced.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@politikaljunki @unusual_whales Management roles aren’t affected by AI (yet) - and absolutely aren’t affected by “robots”. 😂

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost Agreed. Ex-military arguably has been exposed to handling more real-world APT than someone who works protecting an e-commerce platform.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@MalwareJake What would those specific risks be that didn’t exist with the previous head of FBI?

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost Welcome to Arizona! We’ve got the best Mexican here and it’s not even close. I’m in Scottsdale too - DM me if you want some amazing spots to see

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost If only it was remote. I’m looking for a change of scenery.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost I had former 3 letter colleagues I’ve worked with. I remember one who specifically said they knew assets that died because of Snowden. That really changed my perspective on Snowden from “hero” to…it’s extremely complicated. Both bad and good things happened bc of his leaks

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@jfslowik God I can’t wait to be done with corporate life. 😂

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@JeffTefertiller @unusual_whales No. Just no. You want your EDR to autoupdate to be aware the latest threats.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@Myrtus0x0 The higher I climb in big tech the more I am forced to be a PM. It’s terrible. The best gigs seem to be the ones at actual security vendors that grok how to solve adversarial problems with little friction.

@jfslowik Timbuk2 is always a safe, neckbeard-free choice too.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@evilsocket Dozens and dozens of variables behind getting rejected. A vast overwhelming amount has nothing to do with you or your skills. Rejection still deeply sucks tho.

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost Remember having to memorize phone numbers and not being reachable when you weren’t by a land line? I did have a pager tho because of the movie Hackers. 😂

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@turboCodr Wouldn’t give this to my dog

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@ImposeCost Feedback is critical to high quality. You can’t get high quality in a bubble. Thinking otherwise is pure ego

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@Myrtus0x0 I swear I’ve done some of my most meaningful work from a coffee shop too

[Tarik Saleh @tsalehsec]

@piffey This is about as worthless as those colleges that voted for a ceasefire in Gaza 😂
