> I’m no AI or machine learning expert so I don’t know how it works. But I am also worried that spammers could use ChatGPT to get around Gmail and Outlook’s spam filters.

This will not only increase the spam-problem, but will most likely be used to scale and do targeted phishing attack as well. I wrote an extensive article[0] where I analyzed this. And to no surprise, GPT-3 can be used to generate dynamic phishing campaigns on the fly in multiple languages, classify email responses, improve email thread hijacking attacks etc.

On the other hand, ChatGPT becomes a very convenient tool for generating example data to train the ML component of the spam filter on.

There is a nonzero probability that a new technology will destroy the world. So at some point, the Amish will be right.
