On November 30, 2022 OpenAI released the beta version of their advanced language model software, ChatGPT (Generative Pre-Trained Transformer). Since its release, I’ve personally had the pleasure of experimenting with ChatGPT and seeing how it may work as a tool for penetration testing. What I found has been pleasantly surprising and points towards ChatGPT becoming a valuable resource in the field of cyber security as a whole.
