One significant, recent development that has garnered much attention is the emergence of open-source, generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools and powerful language models such as ChatGPT and Bard. AI technologies can be a double-edged sword – while they can assist overworked cybersecurity professionals by automating and streamlining routine tasks, they can also be used by cybercriminals to automate and scale their attacks, or make their attacks more convincing.
