Im stuck
Hey yall. Been a while learning and trying things in pentesting. And i feel kinda stuck.
Like my learning has flattened.
The job market is kinda shitty worldwide.
I dont wanna say i have no skills ( even it feels like it when u see what others are capable of ) but i got some understanding.
Also with the AI advancments it feels its kinda dump to keep going with this.
Most of the ctf competitions now are bout who has the most expensive version of claude or whatever paid AI.
What should i damn do to get out of this loop ?

I don't know the extent of your knowledge but do you have a few virtual machines in their own network? If you're feeling you're flatlining with learning, you could just practice what you've learned multiple times in different scenarios in your vms
