On “Speedrunners are vulnerability researchers, they just don't know it yet”

I think if they're active in the speedrunning community, then they're already well aware of this! And for a fun additional example to add to this article, you can often find TAS'ers talking about arbitrary code execution. The legendary GDQ run of TASBot's alternate ending to OoT0 utiziling an ACE exploit they found in that game absolutely blew me away. 0 link to this video

On “Bad Apple but it's played inside Super Mario Bros”

they are most likely using a controller hooked up to a bot/laptop that exploits flaws in the code with inputs at high speed (much faster than a human could) that injects code into live games a good video that makes this tech more understandable (with explanations at the beginnimg and an amazing demo at the end) link to this video and some background link
