What Hacker News says
5 sourcesI'm partial to Gepetto for IDA, which includes an especially hilarious trick in which it instructs ChatGPT to phrase its responses in JSON, and then uses this JSON directly to name variables in the decompilation. If the JSON is incorrect, it politely asks ChatGPT to please fix its JSON output, which usually works.
