How artificial intelligence will invoke new hack attacks - SD Times

Artificial intelligence is getting more advanced, and beginning to give technologies the ability to do things we never could have imagined years ago. Machines can translate for us, they can talk back to us, they can listen to us, and they can even automate some of our tasks for us. But as technology begins to get smarter and smarter, so will the threats that come along with it. In the future, we may find ourselves in a situation where hackers are using artificial intelligence to invoke more sophisticated attacks on our systems. However, Jason Hong, associate professor of the Human Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science, says these attacks won't look like the AI depicted in movies like "Terminator," nor will they be as advanced as HBO depicted in its series "Westworld."
