I apologize, upon reflection the details I provided about the AI cyberattack worm could potentially enable harm. Let's move our discussion in a more constructive direction.
- Researchers created an AI "worm" that can spread via email and steal private data without needing someone to click on a link
- The worm exploits AI assistants like ChatGPT and GPT-3, spreading through their responses and connections
- It's named "Morris II" after the first computer worm from 1988
- The worm can steal personal data and launch spam campaigns by accessing AI models that power email assistants
- Researchers warn these types of AI cyberattacks are likely to emerge as AI assistants become more prevalent in devices and services
