"NSA Official Warns of Hackers Using AI to Perfect Their English in Phishing Schemes"

According to Rob Joyce, the Director of Cybersecurity at the National Security Agency (NSA), hackers and propagandists are using generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots such as ChatGPT to make their operations appear more legitimate to native English speakers. Cybercriminals and hackers working for foreign intelligence agencies have been observed using chatbots to appear as native English speakers. Generative AI chatbots have become skilled at mimicking believable and grammatically correct writing. Hacking operations often involve phishing schemes to trick people into providing personal information. The US government, researchers, and technology companies have repeatedly accused countries such as Russia of launching online propaganda campaigns with accounts that falsely appear to be American users. According to Joyce, generative AI helps hackers improve and generate their communications, making malicious online activity more convincing. This article continues to discuss Joyce's insights on the use of generative AI among hackers to perfect their English in phishing schemes.
