Android malware named PromptSpy employs generative AI (Gemini) for adaptive navigation on infected devices. It mainly functions to deploy remote access via VNC, utilizing natural language prompts to interact with user interfaces, enhancing the malware's versatility across different devices. Developed by Chinese speakers, PromptSpy is still largely theoretical, with no live telemetry reports from ESET, but suspected distribution domains hint at potential real-world application. The malware can intercept security codes, record screens, and prevent uninstallation, indicating a disturbing evolution in Android threats.
