8. Challenges with ChatGPT
1. Social engineering attacks: Cyber criminals can use chatGPT to socially
engineer victims into divulging confidential information.
2. Malware threats: Malicious software can be installed on a user’s device
through a malicious link or file received via chatGPT.
3. Phishing attacks: Cyber criminals can use chatGPT to send malicious links
or messages to trick victims into revealing sensitive information or
downloading malware.
4. Identity theft: ChatGPT conversations can be used to gain access to a
person’s identity, allowing cyber criminals to steal data or commit fraud.
5. Data leakage: If data is shared on chatGPT, it can be accessed by
unauthorized users, leading to data leakage.
6. This tool is going to be the most powerful tool for spreading
misinformation that has ever been on the internet
