A majority of CEOs report <a href="https://www.ibm.com/thought-leadership/institute-business-value/report/ceo-generative-ai">feeling under pressure to invest in gen AI</a>. Product teams are now scrambling to build gen AI into their solutions and services. The <a href="https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/regulatory-framework-ai">EU</a> and <a href="https://calmatters.org/economy/technology/2024/03/california-ai-rules-business/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">US</a> are beginning to put new regulatory frameworks in place to manage AI risks.</p><p>Amid all this commotion, hackers and other cybercriminals are hardly standing idly by. They’re looking into using gen AI for doing everything from improving the grammar of phishing messages to exploring ways of <a href="https://securityintelligence.com/posts/using-generative-ai-distort-live-audio-transactions/">faking video and audio</a> to trick or extort money from victims.
