The Evolution of AI Crime: What's Next ?
If there's one certainty about the future of AI crime, it's that criminals will continue to outpace our predictions. But certain trajectories are already visible on the horizon.

The Democratization of Sophisticated Attacks
The most concerning trend isn't the emergence of new attack vectors—it's the lowering barrier to entry for existing ones. Five years ago, the task of which required a team of skilled programmers can now be accomplished by a single individual with access to the right AI tools and a YouTube tutorial. We're moving toward a world were launching a sophisticated phishing campaign or creating convincing deepfakes requires no more technical skill than using a smartphone app.
This democratization follows a predictable pattern.

First comes the advanced capability, available only to nation-states and well-resourced criminal organizations. Then comes the commercial tool, expensive but accessible to serious criminals. Finally comes the commodification—the point where anyone can rent the capability for the price of a monthly subscription.

We're witnessing this progression in real time across multiple domains: voice synthesis, face swapping, automated social engineering, and even the generation of malicious code. By the time this book reaches your hands, several technologies I've described as "emerging threats" will likely be mainstream criminal tools.
