On this week’s present we be taught that AI actually is usually a stalker’s greatest good friend, as we discover a wierd story that begins with a manatee-shaped mailbox on a millionaire’s garden and ends with Grok fortunately doxxing actual folks, mapping out stalking “methods,” and handing out revenge-porn suggestions.
Then we go contained in the Louvre heist, the place thieves in hi-vis and a rent van waltzed off with the French crown jewels in broad daylight, exploiting our assumptions about what “seems to be regular” – the identical sort of bias we’re now baking into safety AIs.
Plus, Graham chats with Rob Edmondson from CoreView about why misconfigurations and over-privileged accounts could make Microsoft 365 dangerously susceptible.
All this, and extra, in episode 447 of the “Smashing Safety” podcast with Graham Cluley, and particular visitor Jenny Radcliffe.
