ChatGPT is a new chatbot developed by the company OpenAI and is an interface for the language model (Large Language Model). Although its primary function is to mimic a human interlocutor in a conversation, ChatGPT is capable of interpreting unusual responses as well. It can generate computer programs, answer exam questions, write poetry and song lyrics. The analysis of multiple hacking communities shows that there are already cases of cybercriminals using ChatGPT to develop malicious tools. This paper deals with determining the possibility of generating malicious programs using the ChatGPT language model. The authors have shown that it is possible to exploit ChatGPT to generate a script that can be used for bruteforce attacks.
