The rev.ng decompiler goes open source + start of the UI closed beta - rev.ng
In this blog post we announce the open sourcing of the rev.ng decompiler, the start of the UI closed beta, how to try rev.ng and much more!
Any eval of the bug finding, patching or debugging capabilities of LLMs that relies on human eyeballs/judgement to determine success should be considered suspect. In these domains precision matters, and LLMs can be very convincing while still being very wrong.

Bug finding is the easier of these handle, in the sense that you can require the LLM be able to provide a trigger. Patching/remediation is harder. LLMs regularly generate patches that look correct and pass the failing test, but are wrong and may even introduce more subtle bugs.

Downside of requiring a trigger is it can conflate ability to reason about code/find bugs with other things, such as ability to write code. e.g. if the eval corpus is Linux kernel vulns, or PHP bugs, then you're requiring strong understanding of kernel/php programming as well.

you can tell a lot about a person based on whether they think of vectors as arrows or list of numbers

neither, a vector is just an element of a vector space

I don't often tweet about patched bugs, but here's one that looks interesting - let's discuss ZDI-24-195 or kernel commit 38d20c62903d669693a1869aa68c4dd5674e2544, in a short 🧵
