    I fed Claude the WSJ article, and asked it to come up with a summary I could post here. It sounded too much like AI wrote it. So I asked it to summarize again but sounding more like my voice and not an AI voice. It still failed, but I thought I'd post its summary anyway. It is a fascinating story.

    "A college kid at RIT cracked one of the biggest cyberattacks ever seen, mostly from his dorm room. Benjamin Brundage mapped out a botnet called Kimwolf — 2 million hacked Android devices being rented out to launch massive DDoS attacks — by infiltrating hacker chat rooms and sweet-talking insiders with cat memes. His research eventually fed into a federal takedown. The feds are sending him a t-shirt. "
