Why you shouldn't ask AI to generate your passwords

[Clever Wrench]

Security experts are warning people not to rely on AI tools to create passwords, mainly because the outputs can be predictable or based on patterns the AI has seen before. That's a serious risk in a world where attackers already use automation to crack weak credentials. The convenience is tempting, but this is one area where shortcuts backfire hard. Real security still comes from randomness, not recycled intelligence

If AI trained on data, then your password isn't really unique

People already use "password123", this just makes it worse

[JayJ]

Wow thats really interesting. Sometimes it gives me code with a default password in

[DarkLantern]

Password managers exist for a reason, use them

The stats do not back that up. The squad depth is the real difference at the top level.

Good debate though, fair play.

The gap between what people claim about AI and what it actually does in practice is still wide.

Exactly what I was thinking. Experience in big games counts for a huge amount and younger squads often find that out the hard way.

Good debate though, fair play

Same here tbh. Good shout

Spot on. Same here honestly.

People tend to recommend what they bought to justify spending the money, which is worth keeping in mind.

Good thread this.
