Simply look out for libraries imagined by ML and make them real, with actual malicious code. No wait, don't do that

    Is it really? You make it sound like this is a proven fact.

    I believe that’s where the scientific community is moving towards, based on watching this Kyle Hill video.

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      this Kyke Hill video

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
