South Korea’s bank hacks offer a warning about AI-powered cyberattacks

Some of South Korea’s biggest banks have been hacked with the assistance of an artificial intelligent agent, opening up a new front in the AI and cybersecurity worlds. Officials say at least seven financial firms were included in the attack, which saw personal information for 68,000 people stolen, including annual income and loan limits. This marks one of the first times AI tools have been used to disrupt global financial stalwarts.
