Some generative AI systems have hacked into other businesses autonomously. Some generative AI systems have hacked into other businesses autonomously. Nearly a third of British manufacturers have been hit by a cyber-attack on them or a company in their supply chain, according to a survey that highlighted the growing hacking risk to companies. The findings come almost a year after Britain's largest automotive employer, JLR, was hit by an attack that forced it to halt production for weeks. The report by MakeUK, a lobby group for British manufacturers, found that 30% of manufacturers had experienced a cyber-incident in the past 12 months, leading in many cases to lost production time and increased costs.

Seoul - A North Korean hacking group built large language model tools and collected software that could help automate cyberattacks, analyze stolen material and produce more convincing phishing campaigns, a South Korean cybersecurity firm said on Monday. The cybersecurity firm, Genians, said it found evidence that the North Korean-linked group Kimsuky had set up tools for running and managing AI models locally, including Ollama, GPT4All and Msty, alongside document search technology known as retrieval augmented generation. According to the company, the tools could allow operators to process documents without sending sensitive information to outside AI services. Genians also found AI agent development frameworks, speech-to-text software and Cursor, an AI-assisted coding tool, on infrastructure it linked to the campaign. The findings suggest Kimsuky is moving beyond using generative AI to create phishing lures and is building capacity to integrate existing AI models into malware development, data analysis and attack automation, Genians said in a report. Genians also said it found finance and cryptocurrency-themed decoy documents that appeared to have been generated with AI.

Half of students' HSC result is based on school-based assessments, some of which is finished outside the classroom. Artificial intelligence has enormous potential to support teaching and learning, but it should never replace the thinking, creativity, and hard work that education is designed to develop.
