You say that like it’s a joke but with the API version of ChatGPT, someone with little to no coding experience can produce some really sick malware.
It’s like performance-enhancing drugs for script kiddies.

HanaBothWays t1_j9vslot wrote
I bet it’s already happened! There are lots of ransomware gangs and only so many potential victims. Different gangs’ “products” will delete other gangs’ malware. They almost certainly hack each other.

So, with the API they gave anyone the ability to hand ChatGPT a joystick to control an armed drone or something like that?

21st century mercenaries know their assignments are temporary. However, getting 'laid-off' may have a difference meaning within organized crime.
HanaBothWays t1_j9w34mk wrote
No, that’s not possible (at least not yet).
But you can prompt ChatGPT to write polymorphic malware that escapes existing detection tools and will bounce around the internet and infect any system that isn’t up-to-date on its patches (there are lots and lots and lots of systems like this).

I am a malware developer, this is not true as a general rule, malware code outputted by these language models have been subpar even for script kiddies standards (most code doesn't even work or don't do what it needs to do). Demonstration:

dopef123 t1_j9w906f wrote
Really? Ive never worked on malware but doesn't it typically need some pretty slick ways to inject code?
HanaBothWays t1_j9w97n0 wrote
Okay. People on forums frequented by script kiddie types have been saying they can get good stuff out of ChatGPT, but of course script kiddies would not know the difference.
The people who write the tools used by script kiddies or those “ransomware as a service” type kits are a different story…
HanaBothWays t1_j9wabvo wrote
There are two possibilities for this:
One, hook up to a module or service that will inject the malware for you (these absolutely exist).
Two, there are lots of well-known vulnerabilities out there that a lot of people haven’t patched…and ChatGPT may know what they are!
You could prompt it with “write malware like this with a delivery mechanism that uses the top five known exploitable vulnerabilities” (yes there is a list).

Should have given it to the feds instead, so he could at least get immunity. Unless he's in a country where it doesn't matter...
Even if you're not American, if your government has given you immunity, I don't think you can be extradited for the same crime. Your government would just refuse the request.

Depends which government it is! Some of them absolutely would.

I think all that stuff having to do with Conti is in the past tense now.
Although like certain businesses do, they may return under a different branding.

No. they can't.
Chatgpt is ... at best decent for very, very simple methods.
But it is shit for even normal decent programming tasks. Let alone innovative programming.
By fucking design! By the very way it works it CANNOT innovate because it just 'riffs' on what it has seen ... it guesses based on previous input ... and most input is SHIT.
And even if the model was trained on the best input .... by it's very definition of how it works it CANNNOT innovate.
Yet.
MacDegger t1_j9wtx87 wrote
No, you can't.
Not even idiots who think that way and try to use prompts that way can.
ChatGPT is basically a dumb Clippy autocomplete which by definition cannot innovate.
A1kmm t1_j9wwzic wrote
Although attributing ransomware is difficult, everything that has been leaked and is public suggests most of the perpetrators are in CSTO (i.e. Russia-allied) countries that actually at least informally encourage attacks on non-CSTO countries. Leaked policies from criminal organisations suggest they generally do not target victims in CSTO countries. CSTO countries rarely have extradition treaties outside the CSTO - no CSTO country has an extradition treaty with the United States, for example. Sometimes authorities do work together when they are aligned despite the absence of a treaty (e.g. Armenia has extradited to the US before) - but that is unlikely to happen for ransomware criminals that only target victims outside the CSTO.
So I don't think they need immunity from their own government, and they don't fear extradition as long as they don't go to a non-CSTO country. Sometimes they do travel overseas and find out that the government tolerance for their activities doesn't extend outside the CSTO.
Data leaks from criminal organisations to non-CSTO governments (in combination with things the governments collect themselves and share) are likely very helpful in ensuring the criminals are likely to be picked up if they do travel.

A1kmm t1_j9wxxff wrote
ChatGPT is a language model, optimised for finding a suitable output text for a given input text. It is trained on natural language understanding an processing - its input is characters, but words, grammar, and basic logic / facts are emergent properties.
It can memorise times tables and solve basic maths problems, but it can't devise an approach to solve larger problems (it can't even add and subtract larger numbers in combinations it hasn't seen before, even if they would be trivial for humans).
None of that makes it very good for tasks like controlling a drone (which would be heavily about image processing) compared to a human.
Other 2010-era developments in AI, such as in the image classification space, for example, would help a lot more for that application.

Realistically, though, it doesn't prevent anything.
The odds of them finding out are very low, and bringing a succesful suit even lower (especially with a 10 year NDA over a school project -- it would be easy to get that thrown out as unreasonable).
They're basically just relying on the fact that most people are good people and will largely follow the rules. It's amazing how much of society depends on that assumption, really.

Yeah, when it's bullshit like this that's clearly just companies lobbying the government to keep the common man down, I have no problems ignoring it.
Even just basic traffic laws, in my city (Toronto) the cops don't bother with any enforcement except the occasional speed trap. I've heard it's a form of protest on their part that's been going on for years.
Most people still obey most of the time, because it makes traffic flow better and keeps everyone safer. But if I need to turn left during a timed no-left restriction, I don't have a problem doing it. As long as it's not unsafe and I have a decent reason.

TBH the huge number of tech sector job cuts that suddenly seem to be announced daily in recent week’s (by companies who couldn’t recruit new people fast enough a matter of weeks before) was already sounding strange to me. Now I’m being told that scammers are also cutting back on staff numbers as well? The criminals that defraud you, blackmail you to steal your money, why would they cut staff?
Please don’t tell me it’s the new law that might be in place by 2025, or that it’s that new National task force that last year manage to extradite A (that’s 1) man from Poland on charges and it can’t be the economic climate as there’s still plenty if opportunity to scam and steal from people….inflation, interest rates and shop prices don’t impact on their business..

Is this about the hacker who did a data dump on his ransomware gang over a pay dispute or something different?
EDIT: okay, read the article, this is something different. But there was a hacker for a ransomware group (I forget if it was Conti or some other group) who basically published all their internal data online because he was upset with the crappy pay and working conditions they imposed on him.
