But what are the costs to a community for getting those trinkets? What the real power that we're getting is how these technologies will be used for businesses to run more efficiently, businesses to understand their customers more and their consumers deeper, but governments also to basically penetrate deeper into our lives, banking the same way, and our military systems. So right now we're seeing a 1200% increase in phishing and fraudulent emails because we're as of even four years ago, there were products on the dark web, such as fraud GPT, worm GPT, chaos, GPT, actual AI applications designed to create malicious software. So as AI improves, so will the attacks against our society.

Cybersecurity experts are sounding the alarm like never before. What do you think is driving this sudden upswing in AI-powered attacks? Speaker 1: It's a confluence of factors, for starters. The technology has evolved to the point where it can automate sophisticated attacks at scale. Also, with more businesses and governments relying on AI for critical operations, the stakes are higher. What are some specific examples of recent breaches attributed to AI? Speaker 2: Sure, let me lay out a couple. In the tech sector, we have seen AI being used to bypass traditional security measures. For instance, AI generated phishing emails that perfectly mimic human behavior in content, and then Therese, the use of AI in ransomware attacks, where malware evolves to stay one step ahead of defenses.
