Abstract: Cyberspace, cybercrime, cybersecurity, and cyberculture are only a few of the many ideas associated with digital technology that go under the umbrella word "cyber". With the development of AI, hackers are using ChatGPT and other similar technologies more frequently to carry out complex cybercrimes. Natural language processing-powered ChatGPT may produce polymorphic malware, believable emails, and false information, which makes it simpler for thieves to trick victims. Artificial intelligence is changing the world of cybercrime. Hackers are now using tools like ChatGPT to make their attacks more sophisticated. This AI can create highly realistic phishing emails and even malware that's hard for antivirus software to detect. This is a big problem because AI is essentially giving less-experienced criminals the ability to commit much more complex and serious crimes. With AI, a small-time crook can now launch attacks that were once only possible for skilled professionals. To stay safe, it's crucial to adopt strong cybersecurity habits. Make sure you're using good antivirus software, creating strong, unique passwords, and keeping a close eye on your financial accounts. If you do become a victim of cybercrime in India, remember that there are legal options available to help you. The rise of AI in cybercrime means that our defences must also evolve to keep up with these new, smarter threats.
