多起针对政府基础设施的黑客攻击凸显了人们对利用AI破坏网络安全的日益担忧。
Several hacks on government infrastructure underscored growing worry over the use of AI to undermine cybersecurity.
乌克兰和俄罗斯均表示，其紧急警报应用程序遭到入侵，并被用于发送导弹和核攻击的虚假警报：“这是官方乌克兰信息应用程序首次发生这种情况，”一名研究人员告诉BBC，“但我怀疑这不会是最后一次。”
Both Ukraine and Russia said their emergency alert apps were breached and used to send false warnings of missile and nuclear attacks: “It’s the first time it’s happening to an official Ukrainian information app,” a researcher told the BBC, “but I suspect it won’t be the last.”
德国方面则表示，议员和官员的手机遭到网络攻击；尽管一位部长称尚不清楚是否使用了AI，“但这自然令我们担忧。”
Germany, meanwhile, said a cyberattack was carried out on lawmakers’ and officials’ phones; though a minister said it was not clear if AI was used, “it’s something that naturally worries us.”
据《连线》杂志报道，一家五角大楼国防承包商的AI代理在政府网络内运行了数月，直到被发现并修补了该漏洞。
And WIRED reported that a Pentagon defense contractor’s AI agent operated within a government network for months before it was discovered and the vulnerability patched.
