Quoting Calif Research
Calif Research says its team used AI to build a zero-click WeChat worm far faster than such work used to take.
The quoted note describes “WeWorm” as spreading through WeChat calls on iOS and Android without the victim answering or interacting. Calif Research says AI helped find the bug and produce a remote code execution exploit in about two days, with the worm built over the following week. The claim is that AI handled much of the exploit work, while humans chose targets and controlled testing. Simon Willison's note
