AI Models Reshape Offensive Security Economics
theomitsa · x · 2026-07-11
The discussion highlights how new models are changing the economics of offensive security.
Key takeaways:
- When evaluating models for vulnerability discovery, it's not just about which is the "best," but whether they pair well with the right harness/workflow.
- Even if a model isn't the top performer in tests, it can still disrupt security cost structures due to lower pricing and higher availability.
- Muse Spark 1.1 and GLM are mentioned as relevant test subjects.
