The AI arms race: The explosive growth of chatbots, large language models, and other AI technologies is reshaping cybersecurity on both sides of the fence. While hackers are already exploiting AI to their advantage, defenders must rapidly adapt to keep pace and prevent escalating damage.
What just happened? A judge has ruled that the lawsuit against Google and Character.ai over claims the latter's chatbot caused a 14-year-old's suicide can go ahead. The boy's mother, who brought the suit, says her son became addicted to the service and emotionally attached to a chatbot based on the personality of Game of Thrones character Daenerys Targaryen.
