A new, concerning variant of generative AI has emerged, dubbed WormGPT. Positioned as an „evil brother“ to the widely known ChatGPT, this specialized AI tool is reportedly making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Unlike its mainstream counterpart, WormGPT is designed with malicious intent. Reports indicate that it is remarkably accessible, enabling even individuals with minimal technical acumen to deploy it for nefarious purposes, particularly in orchestrating Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks. Its capabilities likely extend beyond BEC, posing a broader threat landscape for cybersecurity.
