friends don’t let friends use spicy autocarrot to generate #passwords… 💁‍♀️

Your AI-generated password isn't random, it just looks that way

“AI security company Irregular looked at Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, and found all three #GenAI tools put forward seemingly strong passwords that were, in fact, easily guessable.”
…
“Irregular found that all three AI #chatbots produced passwords with common patterns, and if hackers understood them, they could use that knowledge to inform their brute-force strategies.”
…
“Knowing the patterns also reveals how many times #LLMs are used to create passwords in open source projects. The researchers showed that by searching common character sequences across #GitHub and the wider web, queries return test code, setup instructions, technical documentation, and more.”
