AI doesn’t care whose side you’re on AI boosts productivity for everyone, including attackers. In this case, the technology augmented the human security research team’s efforts, enabling them to identify a weakness in Apple’s security system. This won’t be the first time AI gets used to identify hard-to-find bugs and certainly won’t be the last. This should be a real concern to any p
