Experts warn users to change predictable AI generated passwords
Cybersecurity experts are urging internet users to immediately change any passwords created by artificial intelligence tools. Research conducted by the firm Irregular indicates that popular chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude generate highly predictable character patterns rather than truly random sequences. While these credentials may appear secure to standard checking tools, their repetitive nature makes them vulnerable to cybercriminals. Specialists recommend using biometric passkeys or long memorable phrases instead of relying on language models for security.
