British food festivals are being used to target small food and craft businesses in a scam made possible by artificial intelligence (AI). A BBC Wales investigation found dozens of traders received professional-looking emails purporting to be from festivals with any requests for money only coming after multiple emails are exchanged. One trader whose heart sank when she discovered she had lost money, said that despite spotting scams regularly, the multiple emails she exchanged were so realistic that she fell for one. Abergavenny Food Festival said the accessibility of AI meant scammers could reach more people with scams that look far more believable. Harriet Thomas had applied for a stand at the Abergavenny Food Festival on previous years, and was really excited when an email came offering her the opportunity to book a place for her knitting workshops.

'Just ask Grok': How ISIL is using Big Tech's AI to build bombs Share'Just ask Grok': How ISIL is using Big Tech's AI to build bombs on social media Boko Haram fighters are using the artificial intelligence chatbots of Big Tech companies to help build more powerful bombs, plan attacks and solve problems during combat, according to research by the University of Cambridge. A number of members described using Sam Altman-led OpenAI's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini, Elon Musk's Grok, Mark Zuckerberg's Meta AI and China's DeepSeek as a routine source of technical and military advice before, during and after attacks. Researchers at Tech Against Terrorism infiltrated a pro-ISIL technical forum where supporters instructed one another on how to use AI and circumvent its safety restrictions. The findings come amid growing concern over ISIL's adoption of emerging technologies. In February, United Nations officials warned the Security Council of increased use of advanced AI by ISIL and its affiliates. At the same time, researchers and several of the technology industry's most prominent figures have warned that increasingly powerful AI systems are advancing faster than safeguards, raising concerns that unchecked advances in AI are making it easier for armed groups to exploit the technology.

The last week or so has seen disturbing claims about the capacity of superintelligent AI to destroy the planet . It has also seen warnings coming from figures within the industry itself, including Anthropic's report that criminals, state-sponsored groups, spyware vendors, scientists and propagandists have attempted to use its models to "design missiles and bombs, create deadly pathogens and surveil dissidents" and Elon Musk's claim it could be " more dangerous than nukes ". Our reporting team has been trying to make sense of the scale of these claims. Is the great AI freakout justified?
