Malicious hackers are already using the flashy new AI chatbot, ChatGPT, to create new low-level cyber tools, including malware and encryption scripts, according to a recent report.

said FridayThe report details three instances in December where hackers discussed ways to use ChatGPT to write malware, create data encryption tools and write code creating new dark web marketplaces.: Hackers are always looking for ways to save time and speed up their attacks — and ChatGPT's AI-driven responses tend to provide a pretty good starting spot for most hackers writing malware and phishing emails.

Another "tech-oriented" hacker was also spotted teaching "less technically capable cybercriminals how to utilize ChatGPT for malicious purposes." Check Point noted that the data encryption tool created could easily be turned into ransomware once a few minor problems were fixed.It's still too soon to say how much cybercriminals will lean on ChatGPT in the long run — or for how much longer they'll be able to abuse the platform.

OpenAI has previously said ChatGPT is a research preview and the organization is constantly looking at ways to improve the product to avoid abuse.
