    That’s quite a remarkable claim. Especially when the actual number of attacks by AI-generated ransomware is zero. [Socket]

    If even a single case pops up, I’d be surprised - AFAIK, cybercriminals are exclusively using AI as a social engineering tool (e.g. voice cloning scams, AI-extruded phishing emails, etcetera). Humans are the weakest part of any cybersec system, after all.

    The paper finishes by recommending “embracing AI in cyber risk management”.

    Given AI’s track record on security, that sounds like an easy way to become an enticing target.
