Threat actors are increasingly augmenting their attacks with AI tools, according to researchers at Google’s Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG). For the first time, GTIG observed a threat actor using a zero-day exploit developed by AI, although Google blocked the attack before it succeeded. Threat actors also continue to use Large Language Models (LLMs) for research, reconnaissance, and malware development.
