WormGPT Wreaks Havoc

WormGPT, an AI model similar to ChatGPT, is being used by cybercriminals on the dark web to conduct large-scale cyberattacks and generate malicious content with ease. This AI model is designed specifically for illegal activities, enabling even novice hackers to execute sophisticated phishing and email scams. Despite efforts by companies like OpenAI and Google to counteract such misuse, the presence of tools like WormGPT and PoisonGPT poses significant risks, including the spread of disinformation and increased cyber threats.

Is GPT-Next Next?

At the KDDI Summit 2024, OpenAI Japan CEO Tadao Nagasaki announced GPT-Next, an AI model that will be 100 times more powerful than GPT-4, with improved architecture rather than increased computing resources. He highlighted the rapid growth of ChatGPT, which has over 200 million active users, and noted Japan's historical enthusiasm for innovation as a reason for establishing OpenAI's first Asian base there. Nagasaki, who previously led Amazon Web Services Japan, expressed OpenAI's commitment to advancing AI technology and supporting its integration into the world.
