ChatGPT has managed to create some amusing and hilarious things in the right hands, like this Big Mouth Billy Bass project. However, there is a much darker side of AI that could be used to create some seriously complicated problems for the future of IT. A few IT experts have recently outlined the dangerous potential of ChatGPT and its ability to create polymorphic malware that’s almost impossible to catch using endpoint detection and response (EDR).
EDR is a type of cybersecurity technique that can be deployed to catch malicious software. However, experts suggest this traditional protocol is no match for the potential harm ChatGPT can create. Code that can mutate — this is where the term polymorphic comes into play — can be much harder to detect.
