    Hey HN! This is Yannick from Tines, really excited to share what we’re launching today. Tines 3B is a new product we’ve built for teams building agents, apps, and automations with AI, on top of the assumption that people are already doing this, whether or not IT or security knows about it. Finance, marketing, and more are building dashboards in Claude Code or Codex. None of it is malicious, people are doing exactly what they were asked to do. The issue is there's no easy way for that work to run securely: it ends up on a laptop or personal account, with a credential pasted directly into the…

    Anthropic and OpenAI's publicly available models are explicitly guard-railed so that they refuse offensive tasks. And their cyber-focussed models are gated for enterprises. This leaves SMEs and mid market open to major vulnerabilities. AI can be used as both an adversarial and defensive tool in the world of cyber. A worst case outcome is if only the adversaries have access. Meanwhile, most existing AI cyber tools are just wrappers. The problem is that they still have all the guardrails on from the foundation model where they will inherit its refusals. For this project we've post-trained a…

    Heya HN, excited to show off what I've been privately calling an AI cybersecurity tool built by AI skeptics. Two years ago we started a series of experiments with this philosophy of identifying small pieces of cognitive work where a human can very clearly map out the input data they need and the algorithm they'd follow to make a decision. This idea came partly out of frustration with the zeitgeist involving throwing broad AI features (e.g. useless chat bots) into products that end up unreliable and are targeting no clear problem a user might actually have. It feels kind of like a machete vs.…
