🚨 Breaking AI News

Singapore's global cybersecurity leader, Group-IB, identified 101,134 compromised ChatGPT accounts.

More specifically, the credentials of over 100,000 accounts were leaked on the dark web. These compromised credentials were found within the logs of information-stealing malware sold on illicit dark web marketplaces over the past year.

The number of available logs containing compromised ChatGPT accounts reached a peak of 26,802 in May 2023, with the Asia-Pacific region experiencing the highest concentration of stolen ChatGPT credentials.

Group IB has identified the perpetrator as "Raccoon" an infamous info stealer.

What's most interesting is that 2FA is currently paused in ChatGPT as of June 12th. So right now, there is no way to enhance security to your account; your best bet will be to change your password and wait until 2FA resumes.

Portugal is planning to test an AI system based on OpenAI's ChatGPT to answer emergency calls during busy times. The goal is to utilize AI as the first point of contact for callers on the 112 emergency line.

António Pombeiro, Deputy Secretary General of the Internal Administration, talked about this at a technology conference in Porto. The goal is for callers to not even know they are talking to an AI, to “enhance the user experience,” I don’t know about you, but I don’t like the idea of that.

Portugal is the first country in the world to propose this, and they are hoping it will roll out by 2025.

Daily Definition

Info stealers

'Info stealers' or 'information stealers' are not an AI concept per se but fall under the broader field of cybersecurity. These are a type of malicious software (malware) designed to infiltrate computer systems or networks and gather sensitive information.

Info stealers can be particularly nefarious because they often target information that can be exploited for financial gain or to gain unauthorized access to systems. This might include credit card numbers, login credentials for websites or systems, personal identification information, or proprietary business data.

Now, you might wonder why we're discussing it in the context of AI. Here's the connection: As AI continues to advance, so do the techniques that cybercriminals use. AI and machine learning can be used to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of info stealers, making them harder to detect and more successful in their illicit data harvesting. Hence what happed yesterday.
