I mean, 96.5% of email was spam a decade or two ago, so this is nothing new, AI or not. Hackers and other blackhats are just shifting targets.

The problem is that nobody really uses email anymore. So you might be right, but it should show people why 95% of all the Internet traffic being garbage is pretty damning for businesses or communities that have been built upon it.

You’re telling me you use email for anything other than spam? By all means, give an example. Personally, when I talk to friends or family, I never use their email address, I just add them to signal or get their phone number…

Work, school, 2FA, easy form of communication with small orgs and just general other stuff. Email is not useless but I do not have normal conversations with it if that’s what you mean.

Do you not have a job where you use email? Do you not get bank statements via email? Receipts? Updates from your HOA? Etc etc etc.
