script kiddies wrecking corporate security is funny
prompt kiddies doing it is just depressing

they fired hordes of tech people, and neglected cybersecurity in many companies. this was bound to happen.

I would love to see the term 'low-skilled' used more often within the context of LLM's and the manner in which people use them.

What a thumbnail!

Bad look for Claude after their vigorous insistence their model can't be used this way.

Also bad look for the 50 people I get in my inbox telling me AI is completely useless every time I talk about it. These arguments were worthy of entertainment a few years ago but not in 2026.

The attacker’s inexperience was also evident in his operational security failures. At one point he asked Claude to help edit his resume, which contained his full name, location, education history, and LinkedIn profile.

Later, while investigating a potential compromise of one of his own hosts, he inadvertently confirmed his home IP address to the agent. Based on this and other corroborating evidence, the researchers believe the attacker to be a young man based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Wow.

Wait until someone more skilled hacks the nuclear codes using AI and launches a few at US cities.

And this is why they want to know everything we're doing online at all times.
