AI's Role in Vulnerability Detection: The Necessity of Human Validation

AI excels at identifying potential vulnerabilities but lacks the ability to validate their real-world exploitability without human expertise. The article emphasizes that human judgment remains critical for confirming security findings and avoiding false positives in offensive security workflows.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing offensive security, but it has not changed the standard that matters most: a finding has to be proven before it becomes useful. AI-assisted tools can read code quickly, generate payloads, summarize attack surfaces, explain unfamiliar APIs, and run repetitive testing workflows at impressive speed. That is a real advantage for security teams. It also
