AI firm claims Chinese spies used its tech to automate cyber attacks

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago by akoramos

The makers of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Claude claim to have caught hackers sponsored by the Chinese government using the tool to perform automated cyber attacks against around 30 global organisations.

Anthropic said hackers tricked the chatbot into carrying out automated tasks under the guise of carrying out cyber security research.

The company claimed in a blog post this was the "first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign".

But sceptics are questioning the accuracy of that claim - and the motive behind it.
