McAfee CEO Greg Johnson told Insider GenAI is making threats like phishing more sophisticated.
The more benefit it brings to consumers, it also goes to the scammers, Johnson said.
The CEO of McAfee, the online security company known for its antivirus software, is embracing generative artificial intelligence as a way to boost his employees' productivity and help them keep up with online threats.
"You used to have pretty blunt ways of attacking consumers," Johnson said.
"And in that world, with Gen AI most recently, it's just accelerating the change that consumers are having to navigate."
