- Hash modes `-m 72000` and `-m 73000` use embedded Python; start with `-m 73000`.
- These demonstrate a "generic hash" model, enabling full hash mode creation in Python.
- Users don’t need to recompile when making changes.
- Python’s crypto ecosystem helps developers or AI generate new hash mode code easily and performant.

### Hybrid Architecture
Note that tn the Python example, only CPU resources are used and Hashcat does not transform Python into GPU code. However, the Bridge supports hybrid setups, where part of the workload runs on a traditional backend and another part on the Bridge. This model allows performance-critical components to be handled by the most suitable type of compute unit.

However, the Bridge supports hybrid setups, where part of the workload runs on a traditional backend and another part on the Bridge. This model allows performance-critical components to be handled by the most suitable type of compute unit.
For example, in hash mode `-m 70100`, a demonstration of SCRYPT, the PBKDF2 stage runs on a GPU using OpenCL/CUDA/HIP/Metal, while the memory-intensive `smix()` runs on the CPU through a bridge using the scrypt-jane implementation. This could just as easily be offloaded to an FPGA instead, which would benefit from reduced code complexity and increased parallelization boosting performance significantly.
