    To be honest, phishing emails are so bad that I don’t see how any generational AI couldn’t be better. Just making less than two typos per sentence would e enough.

    Someone explained me that it may be intentional that phishing emails are so bad as it acts as a pre-filter, then you only spend time and ressources dealing with presumably very gullible people.

      The typos are intentional. They filter out intelligent recipients who wouldn’t fall for the scam.
