Makemore for password candidate / rule generation

[snazzy]

I've been experimenting with Andrej Karpathy's Makemore to create simple pytorch models trained on password datasets. I've had fun using it for attacking hashlists with common words and patterns (e.g. the 2024 Halloween challenge by @0-0-0-0). I'm also planning experimenting with using it to generate new rulesets.

I'm sure its a rather inefficient avenue for generating new password candidates and rules, but it's been fun to toy around with. Just thought I'd share.

Has anyone else found any fun/interesting uses for AI/LLMs in the realm of hash recovery?

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for giving the challenge a go. Your uploads were a fun surprise also, as it's still on the down low :). Made my day, cheers.
