The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) warned that artificial intelligence poses an "unprecedented" threat, as foreign governments and criminals use it to hack computer networks and critical infrastructure. In its annual report, the agency said AI lets malicious actors find vulnerabilities faster and exploit them at greater scale, speed and sophistication. The ASD issued more than 4,400 warnings about potentially malicious activity over the past year, an 80% increase from the previous 12 months, and cited attacks linked to China, Russia and North Korea.
