What makes someone a script kiddie or not a script kiddie?
Imo this differentiation is totally pointless now. It gives everyone with access to AI the ability to use it as intended but also otherwise.
But that is true for the defensive side also.

Now that that text editor accepts English, we're all calling each other names, etc.
The last time intel made a CPU where the entire thing could fit in one persons head was probably the 8086 or thereabounts.
There is no one developer or engineer at apple that understands everything going on from key press to bits moving around to print the characters I see when I type in this text box.
Now that script kiddy has access to the second kind, on demand, at perhaps, a very accessible cost. Things are about to get really wild, assuming uncensored k3 models that allow this sort of prompting exists.
Running K3 on your own infra is still not "cheap" tho, but we'll get there maybe.
but yeah to my point, we're making "intelligence" a commodity, with all the ramifications that entails.
The way I see it, a script kiddie is someone who buy weapons with the intention to cause harm. They don't know or care how the weapon works, as it's just a tool for their malicious plan.
A non-script kiddie would be someone who build weapons.
If you assume weapons have recreational purposes, the builder/non script-kiddie is less likely to be malicious as they love the craft of building weapons. For example recreating historical weapons, or just being nerdy about machinery of a gun works.
A builder with malicious intent as first priority can exist, they are more likely to just be interested in building.
So basically, nerds are perceived to be more ethical than non nerds.
The premise now is that everyone and your mom can vibe code next unicorn during a lunch break using the latest llms, but the difference between a rookie and a seasoned programmer is that the later can navigate the model in much more efficient way, understand the code that has been written, and notice hallucinations on the spot.
Needs some work!
