I’m not sure AI would work for detecting spam using email contents so surely it would use other metrics… and if it does, it’s just become another email filter. I don’t think that solution would help much.
I think ultimately email failed as a federated service because in general people do not care about email. They just want to use it to login to services, get one time codes, receipts and maybe if they’re fancy - a newsletter.
AI’s been in use in commercial anti-spam for quite a while now - and on the flip side is also being used by the spam senders. Just another front on the unending war.
But spam (and phishing, and all malware) happens because humans get fooled by it. No reason to think AI will be any smarter.
