Google's Threat Intelligence Group reported that hackers from nations like Iran, China, and North Korea are leveraging the Gemini chatbot to improve operational efficiency. While they find productivity gains in tasks such as code generation and reconnaissance, Gemini has not been a revolutionary tool for creating innovative hacking techniques. The report highlights continued experimentation by these state-backed groups and notes that despite the rapid evolution of AI technologies, current large language models are still limited in their ability to provide breakthrough capabilities.
Rather than enabling disruptive change, generative AI allows threat actors to move faster and at higher volume.
Current LLMs on their own are unlikely to enable breakthrough capabilities for threat actors.
