Cyberattacks by AI agents are coming
Agents could make it easier and cheaper for criminals to hack systems at scale. We need to be ready.
by Rhiannon Williams, April 4, 2025
"Agents are the talk of the AI industry—they’re capable of planning, reasoning, and executing complex tasks like scheduling meetings, ordering groceries, or even taking over your computer to change settings on your behalf. But the same sophisticated abilities that make agents helpful assistants could also make them powerful tools for conducting cyberattacks. They could readily be used to identify vulnerable targets, hijack their systems, and steal valuable data from unsuspecting victims.
"At present, cybercriminals are not deploying AI agents to hack at scale. But researchers have demonstrated that agents are capable of executing complex attacks (Anthropic, for example, observed its Claude LLM successfully replicating an attack designed to steal sensitive information), and cybersecurity experts warn that we should expect to start seeing these types of attacks spilling over into the real world."

Oh, the #AMD NPU driver already got upstreamed into #Linux 6.14? Fancy that, I thought I had to build myself a dkms module to get it running on OpenSuse. 🙂
Now I'm curious how involved it will gonna be to make something like #Codestral run on it. The usual tools are probably not yet well optimized to utilize that Co-Processor OOTB.

Ello sweet gaming Friendos 
A music Toot this time but I'll throw in some gaming as well. 
I got my first weekly stats from the stats.fm app, so I wanted to share here. It's definitely not a surprising list.
hihi...
I played a little NMS yesterday while chatting to @Nio who was working on the expedition. I decided to go out and find some more bones. I wanna build a exhibition kind of area and then play around with different kinds of fossil displays. I know it won't ever be as cool as others will be able to make it, as I truly suck with building in NMS (I struggle with the 3D aspect and how to connect things properly). But, it will be fun to try it out... 😊
Today there won't be any gaming. I've given myself a day off, no garden work, but I'll visit the zoo for a few hours. Hopefully the weather will be nice and it won't be too busy in the early hours... 🤞🏻
On Tuesday, I wanna do some garden work again. And then probably reward myself with some gaming. 😊
Hope you all had a good weekend!
and that the new week will bring loads of fun and positivity!

TRUMP: I think your question is so stupid. I don't want anything to go down, but sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.

in reply to Lynnesbian • • •if there are any #GNOME designers/artists (gnomes? gnome heads? gnomish sourcerers? gnaphic gnesigners?) seeing this, does it comply with the HIG in your opinion? what would you suggest changing if not?
the cheesecrater icon uses the standard rustacean image, which doesn't have that smooth, rounded look the HIG usually suggests, but i lack the skill to make a "blobby" version of ferris.
the crates browser, with its triple-pane layout (third screenshot), is the most complicated of them, but it's based on the design of the crates.io website, which displays the readme alongside a right-aligned "metadata" pane.
(also: either it's very hard to write descriptive alt text for UI design screenshots, or i am very bad at it. possibly both.)
