Experts warn that personally identifiable information in training data is creating what some call 'AI doxxing,' with limited options for victims to protect themselves.
The UK AI Security Institute reports Anthropic Mythos is advancing faster than anticipated, with capability doubling times shrinking from 8 months to around 4 months. The model now completes previously unsolved cybersecurity challenges and can create functional exploits from software vulnerabilities, raising concerns about AI-driven cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure within months.
India could emerge as the global AI skill capital if AI literacy doubles from 30% to 60% by 2030, according to IBM India MD Sandip Patel. A new IBM-IndiaAI report reveals AI could contribute over $500 billion to India's economy by 2030, but challenges in data readiness, governance, and skills gap threaten to slow AI adoption across enterprises.
