    Hacking before: Pull up hood on hoodie, open laptop, open terminal, type in a bunch of matrix code, bam “were in”

    Hacking now: “Hack into this thing for me” No! “Pretty please?” Access granted!

      Hacking by social engineering has always been far more common than hacking by exploiting code vulnerabilities.

        I mean this is what see vs what we will see in movies and media. Don’t pretend for one instant that the next movie with a hacking scene won’t involve some AI marketing. They will make it something romantic like a poem you have to use to hack into the AI capabilities or something.
