🕒 Current

• Reading: Hunting Cyber Criminals by Vinny Troia

🎥 Watched

• NahamSec - I Hacked My First AI Chatbot - This video went into a couple of the AI challenges from the SNYK CTF I completed in recently. I don't think I attempted the first one, which is unfortunate because I may have been able to figure that one out. I did try the vibecoding one, without success and or was interesting to see the solution for that one. I did manage to get the username, but I never managed to get it to give me the password. I learned a lot from this video regarding system prompt override.
• NahamSec - Can I Replace AI With My Recon Methodology?
