Tony Stark, Reflexion and Projects

This week was still interesting as I'm still working on a lot of different stuff. I continue to hunt a bit and found some nice bugs and got paid, so I can work on the other parts of my different projects.

It looks unreal, but we are in an area where Jarvis from Iron Man is possible. As we can just wire everything, take a Raspberry Pi, put a microphone on it, and install an openclaw, and then you have a fully autonomous assistant.
And it's crazy as it works. I already plan to wire all the stuff I already have, like a 8 mic board I can put on a Raspberry Pi, and put it in my living room to control all my stuff. I also have a bunch of unused screens, maybe making a nice dashboard to control everything.
It's very funny how it's simple now, and how coding isn't the problem anymore. Anything can be developed in a bunch of minutes and online in a few seconds. So what's next?
We saw the arrival of Claude Security. And also Claude Cowork, who can handle HR stuff, PM stuff, and anything an engineer can do. By the end of 2026, what will our jobs look like?
And I tried using it like that. I was looking for bugs on a target, and I just asked:
- Ok, take my Chrome tab and continue the research when I'm cooking
And I came back, and he found some interesting leads. No bugs, but interesting leads. Now I can leave the computer and continue working, just by letting my agent take the boring part of the job.
Reflexion
The more I use AI, the more I go to X, the more I see how it can be powerful. At first, I got a bit scared. Like the whole stuff you built can now be done in a fraction of a second by Claude. Even the basic bugs can be found, especially on open source stuff.
But the thing is, this is where creativity can rise. Is it funny to build a dashboard, to scan a target, to launch a whole app with all api, writing tests, etc? I don't find it funny.
The funny part of our job is the creative part. Assemble all the gadgets to build a chain. Find a nice idea of a tool that can be useful. Get a Business Logic bug that is very impactful for the target. This is where the real fun can come.
Of course, I loved finding basic IDORs by modifying the id in the request and got a bunch of PII data. And it was free money, and it's still possible. But now, we can automate that and focus on more critical bugs.
So, I see it more like a nice assistant that can take all the boring parts for me, and I only focus on the funny stuff. I don't know if it will pay off in the long run, but it will help for sure.
Now, I have a bunch of dashboards and automation running, telling me where to look, scanning stuff for me, and giving me only the interesting part. I'm more of a triager than a researcher. During this time, I really need to come back to working on interesting stuff and digging into projects.
Projects
During this time, I can also handle working on different projects. I have a bunch of ideas, but not enough time. That's why it's my agents who can handle them.
The first one was Kinen, and I love it, and launched it. It was kind of a flop on Product Hunt, but I don't care. It's a tool I use every day, and maybe my marketing was bad or something. I will probably dig that later.
I think it's the best moment to launch a bunch of projects and see if one can work, especially because it's so easy to build stuff now. So I'm taking all the problems I face on a daily basis, and try to fix them. And you should do it too. I don't know where we are going now, but it's both exciting and frightening.
