Piotr Migdał /pjɔtr ˈmig.daw/ - a curious being, doctor of sorcery.
Professionally: I am a founding engineer at Quesma, investigating ever-changing limits of agentic AI in software engineering.
Previously: Co-founder & CTO of Quantum Flytrap, deep learning consultant, data viz specialist, quantum physics PhD.
Personally: I dance balfolk, fusion, and Zouk. I do sauna rituals, among trees, ponds and streams. A bit more on my journey in this post.

Session
Reverse engineering binaries once required deep expertise. Today, AI models like Opus 4.6, GPT-5.3-Codex, and Gemini 3.1 Pro change the rules. Watch how pairing AI with the NSA's Ghidra decompiler or simple hex tools like xxd makes binary hacking accessible. We will dive into practical projects: hacking infinite lives into Atari’s River Ride, porting the legacy game Chromatron, decoding LED backpack protocols, and hunting for backdoors. Let me show how to add reverse engineering to your everyday skills.
