A developer has built Blind LLM Agents, a project designed to make it harder for AI agents to analyse and recreate shipped software. Its creator, Timo Zhang, told The Register that the tool raises the effort required, rather than making reverse-engineering impossible.
Why it mattersThe project applies techniques including renaming, string encryption and decoy code to software builds. Zhang says it also checks functional equivalence and tracks what its protection covers. A useful reminder that code shipped to customers can be examined, whether by people or increasingly capable agents.
Discuss: Should developers add friction to AI-assisted reverse-engineering, or should publicly shipped software remain straightforward to inspect and reuse?
