Da. AI poate genera e-mailuri de phishing credibile și personalizate pentru un anumit țintă folosind tehnici avansate de procesare a limbajului natural. Aceste e-mailuri pot imita stilul de scriere al persoanei vizate, pot include detalii relevante din viața lor personală sau profesională și pot fi adaptate pentru a p ?

O capabilitate pe care ne-ar fi plăcut să nu o aibă inteligența artificială. Partea defensivă — detectoarele de phishing bazate pe AI — au devenit și ele dramatic mai bune în 2024.

Background

Recent public tests show that large language models can tailor phishing emails by extracting names, employers, writing habits and social connections from public posts to produce messages that read as authentic to the recipient. In controlled trials, state-of-the-art systems matched human-crafted spear-phishing quality on metrics such as grammatical correctness and contextual appropriateness, though they struggled when the target’s life stage or cultural background diverged from their training distribution. Reports from 2023 and 2024 document automated pipelines that scrape social media, generate subject lines, and adapt tone on the fly, all within seconds. Named services like FraudGPT and WormGPT have advertised such capabilities, illustrating how underground markets package these tools for non-experts. Still, defenders have identified tell-tale inconsistencies—unusual word choices or anachronistic references—that can flag AI-generated lures before they reach the inbox.
