James Berthoty explains how AI pentesting is changing the dynamics of security testing through contextual payloads, autonomous agents, and application-aware vulnerability discovery. We also explore token costs, AI-native security vendors, the future of bug bounties, testing in production, and whether model providers could eventually absorb today’s security tools.
