Malwares
Context:
- Researchers have shown that malware can be injected and hidden in neural network models.
- Neural network is the foundation of artificial intelligence (AI). It performs tasks similar to how the human brain works, and is designed to simulate the way the human brain analyses and processes information.
- Researchers reckon that with widespread application of AI, utilising neural networks to inject malware could become a new way to run malicious campaigns.
