Cybercriminals Deploy AI-Driven Crime-as-a-Service Platforms Globally

Group-IB's 2025 whitepaper reports that cybercriminals are now using weaponized language models, Dark LLMs and deepfakes as off-the-shelf infrastructure, with dark web AI mentions up 371% since 2019 and over 23,000 new AI-related posts in 2025. The report cites Dark LLM subscriptions (from $30/month), synthetic identity kits (~$5), and $347 million in verified deepfake fraud losses in one quarter, stressing defenders face harder attribution.
Scoring Rationale
Robust Group-IB evidence shows broad, growing AI-enabled cybercrime; limited peer-reviewed validation and long-term autonomy projections remain uncertain.
