Ignoring the question of “could current ai do this?”, the fact remains that most PCs that can get infected either can’t run the model (not enough ram) or run it with an immediately noticeable spike in CPU usage (100% for hours/days) or a spike in GPU usage that would block most other tasks to a standstill.
It doesn’t need to be running at full power, it can be slow but deadly. And 99% of users are not gonna notice a random program using 10% of their resources.
Not sure if that would work, a restart resets all progress. If the program didn’t finish inside the 8 hour workday then it will never progress. Add to that that the ai will use the same amount of ram no matter how much you slow down the CPU and you’ll still slow down the PC immensely. The small models also aren’t smart so they would break often too.
Edit: Does a working PoC exist? Shouldn’t be hard to (dis)prove.
Press x to doubt.
