This episode takes a break from the usual AI security news roundup for a show-and-tell discussion centered on "Skippy," an AI-powered personal assistant built to automate cybersecurity workflows. The conversation covers how the project evolved from an OpenClaw experiment into a system that tracks AI and cybersecurity news, generates daily intelligence briefs, documents its own code, recommends training updates, assists with content creation, and performs automated vulnerability research. The hosts also discuss practical AI workflows, prompt engineering, model selection, and lessons learned from integrating LLMs into day-to-day security operations.
