Estrategias educativas para detectar ingeniería social potenciada por Chatbots de inteligencia artificial
Abstract
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots as tools for social engineering attacks has become a new threat in the field of cybersecurity. The problem is increasing in education, as students and teachers can be vulnerable targets for automated manipulation techniques. This article presents a synthesis of the state of the art on the close relationship between generative AI and social engineering techniques and proposes educational strategies to avoid manipulation and possible deception attempts. In addition, it highlights the need to incorporate these topics in educational programs in engineering and other disciplines as a support to strengthen digital literacy and prepare future professionals to face social engineering challenges developed by AI.
