There are basically two kinds of people in the world, ones that create stuff, and ones that destroys stuff.

Defense is a toally different game, and requires a complete new mindset than creativity. Security is something that you miss one then you lose all.

AIs are good at choosing a good candidate based on a reward model, but it sucks hard at enumerating mundane attack surfaces and make combinations to exploit through.

Good engineering is good engineering. Belief that someone else uniquely possesses the skill to engineer some critical part of a system you built is, for me, just abdicating responsibility. It's a learned helplessness.

Someone else blindly operating an llm on a corpus you created with an llm is comical.
