The author further discusses how people communicate with LLMs and the concept of "generic artificial intelligence," which can perform any intellectual task a human can. The article also explores how bad actors might utilize strategic techniques like the OODA loop and the PDCA cycle to use AI and LLMs for nefarious purposes. Looking ahead, the author plans to use LLMs and botnets to improve cybersecurity in EV charger infrastructure and grid protection.
Key takeaways:
- The explosion of artificial intelligence, including large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, marks a significant technology revolution. However, these technologies could prove dangerous if misused by hackers or bad actors.
- Historically, AI was built on machine learning models, but we are now entering the age of generative AI and LLMs. These technologies can simplify complex data science and provide straightforward answers, which could be exploited by cybercriminals to develop malware or improve their attack strategies.
- Strategic techniques like the OODA loop (observe, orient, decide, act) and PDCA cycle (plan-do-check-act) are being used with AI and LLMs. These strategies can be used for real-time adaptation or longer-term learning, respectively, and could be misused by cybercriminals to guide their missions.
- Despite the potential risks, AI and LLMs are being applied across various sectors to improve areas like medicine, industry 4.0, and agriculture. The author plans to use these technologies to improve EV charger infrastructure cybersecurity and grid protection.
