AI has made work easier. Criminals are saying the same thing

AI has made work easier. Criminals are saying the same thing

Updated 2 min read

Key points

  • AIは資本や人手が不足している個人でも、海外取引やアプリ構築を可能にする力を提供している。
  • 犯罪者はAIを用いてスマートフォンアプリが接続するサーバーの脆弱性を大量に分析し、攻撃を効率化している。
  • 個人のセキュリティ意識を高めても、預け先の企業サーバーから情報が盗まれるリスクは排除できない。

Why it matters. AIによる効率化の恩恵は犯罪者にも及び、個人の注意だけでは防げないサーバー側からの情報漏洩リスクが高まっているため。

ある教育者が、AIと通信技術が個人の能力を補完し、広告作成やアプリ構築を容易にしたと述べています。一方で、AIがサイバー攻撃におけるサーバーの脆弱性分析などの単純作業を効率化し、犯罪者の生産性を向上させていると指摘しました。利用者が注意深く行動しても、情報を預けている企業のサーバーからデータが盗まれれば防げないため、情報の保存先や権限などの不可視な領域について考える必要があると主張しています。

AI has made work easier. Criminals are saying the same thing

I tell my students that they should study AI and communication technology. Things that used to require a company to accomplish can now be done by individuals. Doing business with people abroad. Creating advertisements. I tell my students that they should study AI and communication technology. Things that used to require a company to accomplish can now be done by individuals. Doing business with people abroad. Creating advertisements. Building apps. It compensates significantly for areas where knowledge, manpower, and capital were lacking. I myself am benefiting from this. I draw pictures, write text, and publish in English as well. The tools to give shape to what I want to do have increased. Since we live in such an interesting era, I want my students to use them too. However, after watching a video explaining cyberattacks using AI, I realized something anew. Those benefits have reached scammers and criminals as well. While we are rejoicing that 'we can now do things like this on our own,' they are rejoicing over the same thing. Manpower shortages have been resolved. Tedious tasks have decreased. Work has become faster. It is a troublesome situation, as even criminals are increasing their productivity. The video introduced an attack that analyzes smartphone apps and searches for weaknesses in the servers they connect to. AI helps with work that humans used to spend time investi.
