Virtualization like QubesOS DVMs--to protect the masses from the impending AI Spear-Phishing Swarms (Heiding et al., 2025).
Recent research shows with a little development, modern LLMs can be used to fully automate spear-phishing campaigns-- from reconnaissance to email and evaluation.
These atracks work as well as human hacking experts with 54% success.
This also makes it way more profitable.
Average non-QubesOS users need virtualization like disposable VMs in QubesOS.
