How is AI changing bug bounty hunting, and where do human hackers still make the difference?
@NahamSec and
@ehrishiraj discuss AI agents, ethical hacking, and the future of vulnerability research from reconnaissance and code review to building security agents and verifying findings.
From their first hacking experiments to building tools for the security community, they share the experiences that shaped their work. They explore how collaboration makes better researchers, the role of open-source security tools, and why verifying vulnerabilities matters as much as finding them.
