I recently participated in a CTF with GitHub Copilot as my AI assistant. In this article, I share how AI helped me solve challenges faster, where it reached its limits, and practical tips for anyone interested in using AI in cybersecurity competitions. While I focus on Copilot, the lessons apply to any AI assistant. I’d love to hear about your experiences or opinions on using AI for CTFs or security research!
