Vibe Password Generation: Predictable by Design - Irregular

LLM-generated passwords appear strong, but are fundamentally insecure. Testing across GPT, Claude, and Gemini revealed highly predictable patterns: repeated passwords across runs, skewed character distributions, and dramatically lower entropy than expected. Coding agents compound the problem by sometimes preferring and using LLM-generated passwords without the user’s knowledge. We recommend avoiding LLM-generated passwords and directing both models and coding agents to use secure password generation methods instead.

OpenClaw: A Case Study in AI Ecosystem Security Debt

If you missed the OpenClaw whirlwind, here’s what happened in the last few days from a security perspective. Over the last few days, the Clawdbot → Moltbot → OpenClaw ecosystem (and its surrounding services like ClawHub/MoltHub and Moltbook) has provided a near-perfect case study in a broader trend:
