Exploring the New Threats of AI: Can Malware Be Created with ChatGPT?

As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly advances, its implications for cybersecurity are profound, prompting new debates and discussions in the tech community. Heatwave Co., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, is taking a proactive approach by hosting a free online seminar titled "Exploring the New Threats of AI: Can Malware Be Created with ChatGPT?" This event is scheduled for December 12, 2025, from 18:00 to 19:30 (JST) and promises to provide valuable insights into the use of large language models in cyberattacks.

Background and Purpose

The evolution of AI, particularly large language models (LLMs), has significantly transformed the methods used in cyberattacks. However, the opportunities for training ethical hackers and nurturing white-hat security talent remain largely limited. Recognizing this gap, the seminar aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of cyber threat landscapes through the lens of attackers. By doing so, it seeks to enhance practical defensive capabilities among participants.
