Why is this AI slop here? The "author" deleted his twitter account and added the disclaimer at the top of this post that it's all written by AI and he's not an actual "programmer or reverse engineer".

The fact that nonsense like this gets likes amazes me. You take an emulator, you know a thing whose entire purpose is to evaluate instructions without actually executing them, "bypass" something with overcomplicated and unnecessary hardware breakpoints usage (what exactly is the point of not just catching the access violation instead? Or why do you need to cause an exception at all to emulate the instructions?) and release it with some awful POC that's also AI generated.

Is this the fault of AI or are you being overly critical of someone’s learning process? There’s a big disclaimer at the top. Isn’t that police enough? I’m sure the author and readers would appreciate constructive critique without the insinuation that it’s pure AI slop. I suspect the more subtle commentary is: if people are going to learn this way, how do we make tools to help make that process quality. In any event I would hardly fault the author for not knowing they they’ve essentially reinvented an emulator in an academic context.
