With stories like this I always wonder about how much guidance the bot was given. They mention a whole bunch of tokens and someone actively guiding the thing “to get it unstuck from dead ends”. What did the bot actually do? Did it do anything? Or was it guided to write an already known script for an already known exploit.

A lot of times it’s presented as telling the bot: “Hack this software” and it does the thing. This one is at least a bit more honest about saying it also took a lot of hours and prompting. I’m not sure the bot actually did anything, it’s just a really really inefficient way of typing.
