Former special assistant to President GW Bush Pippa Malmgren reacts to artificial intelligence technology and the Russia-Ukraine conflict on 'Making Money.'intended to help with writing emails, essays, and coding, is being used by some for criminal activities like espionage, ransomware, and malicious spam, among other things. OpenAI, ChatGPT has widespread generated interest in how the chatbot tool can be used for the future.
"It’s still too early to decide whether or not ChatGPT capabilities will become the new favorite tool for participants in the Dark Web," researchers at the security firm, Check Point Research, wrote on Friday. "However, the cybercriminal community has already shown significant interest and are jumping into this latest trend to generate malicious code."
The researchers noted that the code can be used in "benign" fashion. But bad actors can easily modify the script "to encrypt someone’s machine completely without any user interaction," the firm said. The chat tool has already generated some controversy in schools for its ability to churn out a persuasive term paper in a matter of seconds. Last week, New York City school officials started blocking the writing tool for students.
ChatGPT is part of a new generation of AI systems that can converse, generate readable text on demand and even produce novel images and video based on what they've learned from a vast database of digital books, online writings and other media.But unlike previous iterations of so-called "large language models," such as OpenAI's GPT-3, launched in 2020, the ChatGPT tool is available for free to anyone with an internet connection and designed to be more user-friendly.
