Anthropic warns of AI-driven hacking campaign linked to China

WASHINGTON (AP) — Researchers at an artificial intelligence firm say they've found the first reported case of foreign hackers using AI to automate portions of cyberattacks. Anthropic says it identified a hacking operation that used its own AI program to direct some of the work. The researchers linked the work to the Chinese government and said that AI's potential can be exploited by foreign hackers looking for ways to boost their effectiveness. The campaign was identified in September and Anthropic says the hacking campaign was modest in scope and had limited success before they identified it in September and notified the individuals who had been targeted.
