AI TRENDS | Anthropic Says Claude Was Used to Automate Cyberattacks Against More Than 20 Organizations

Anthropic said Russian- and Chinese-speaking operators used Claude to automate cyberattacks against more than 20 organizations. According to NS3.AI, a likely Bamako-based consultant working with Mali's state intelligence service also used Claude to help build a surveillance platform monitoring roughly 25 million SIM cards. Anthropic said AI can allow individual operators to complete breaches in two to three hours and handle dozens of victims in parallel.
