Hmm. How long do y'all think it'll be before we start seeing neural networks used for hacking? :/
@Angle I thought this was about decryption but now I see you said hacking. idk.
@Shadow8t4 Decryption is a variety of hacking, IMO. I'd take that as an example. :/
@Angle well I'm not super into encrytion algorithms, but I would think even with the help of neural networks it wouldn't really be easy to make a system that would edge itself closer to a solution...
@Shadow8t4 Mmm, I would think so too. But is it really that much harder than making a system that plays go? :/
@Angle the thing with go is that it has predefined rules and a goal state. It's easy to tell a program what its legal moves are and what goal it should be trying to achieve. A neural network and learn this.
Decryption is more or less at this point somewhat of a brute forcing art. It's hard to just *know* what encryption algorithm was used to encrypt the data and harder to *know* when you're getting close to a decrption... At least, from what I understand... I could be completely wrong.
@Shadow8t4 Mmm, yeah fair enough. Still worries me though. :/
