Immunity did almost no fuzzing in our entire time, despite having quite a lot of original research in it. It's not just about finding exploitable bugs, but finding the ones others won't find. https://t.co/VH0wOE0bEG

Hey maybe itโ€™s just a me thing but I donโ€™t think we should use the term โ€œAI artโ€ and use โ€œAI imagesโ€ instead.

Seems minor but these idiots start to think they are artists when you call their output โ€œartโ€ instead of โ€œimagesโ€.
