AI could turn script kiddies into sophisticated attackers

Original: AI has 'potential' to turn script kiddies into sophisticated attackers

Security researchers are warning that artificial intelligence has the potential to transform low-skilled hackers, or script kiddies, into attackers capable of sophisticated infrastructure attacks. The concern is that AI tools can automate complex techniques once requiring deep expertise, lowering the barrier to serious cybercrime and prompting debate about how defenders should respond.

Why now: Rapid advances in AI capabilities are raising fresh concerns about democratized cyberattacks.
