In this session, I will take you on a journey into the world of cyber-attacks powered by artificial intelligence. I will be sharing the research conducted by my team, who were able to weaponize ChatGPT to produce a full attack chain, ranging from the creation of convincing phishing emails to the development of multiple cyber weapons.

With the introduction of GPT-4, the team was not only able to fine-tune existing attack tools, but also trick the platform into creating new ones, raising the stakes even higher for those tasked with protecting against cyber-attacks. I will also delve into how cybercriminals are weaponizing AI and sharing their ideas on various underground forums, highlighting the alarming increase in sophistication and malicious intent.

In addition to showcasing the innovative techniques and tools utilized in this research, I will discuss the key challenges policymakers face in addressing this urgent issue. As cyber-attacks continue to evolve, the stakes have never been higher.

Join me for a session on the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, where we’ll discuss staying ahead of the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape and its implications for individuals, businesses, and governments alike..
