AI is taking over the boring stuff — recon, noise, and tier-one work — but when it comes to real-world pentesting, business logic flaws, weird edge cases, and creative thinking still belong to humans.

In this episode, Paul Petefish (Evolve Security) and Mackenzie dig into what AI is actually changing in offensive security, why prompt injection is getting weirder, and how “man + machine” is quickly becoming the new normal.

AI is overwhelming bug bounty programs with convincing but useless reports — and some major projects are shutting theirs down entirely. In this week’s news brief, we break down the economics behind “AI slop,” why curl pulled the plug on its program, and what this means for ethical hackers. Then we revisit OpenClaw, where security researchers are shifting from criticism to collaboration — and even VirusTotal is stepping in. Is AI breaking security… or reshaping it?

AI is transforming application security, not just by finding vulnerabilities but by fixing them safely. In this episode, sit down with Frederick Ryckbosch and dive into how AI understands code flow, remediates real security issues, and builds trust through testing and feedback loops. A practical look at autofix, dependencies, and the future of secure software development.Read more about AI Autofix: https://www.aikido.dev/features/autofixVideo chapters00:00 Introduction to AI and Application Security02:00 Where AI Is Actually Useful in Security04:10 Understanding Code Flow and Real Vulnerabilities07:10 Can AI Safely Fix Security Issues?10:35 Building Trust With AI Autofix and Feedback Loops12:15 Autofixing Dependencies and Breaking Changes17:55 Trust, Risk, and Guardrails for AI Systems20:35 The Future of Coding With AI
