Microsoft said in an update on Nov. 17 that Windows 11 users who use “agentic features” from its artificial intelligence (AI) services should be cautious because the AI agents could potentially download and install malware.
In an alert, Microsoft warned that its AI models could “occasionally hallucinate” and introduce “novel security risks” such as malware because large language models, a type of AI that processes data and generates human-like text, are susceptible to cyberattacks.
