What happened?
Security experts say North Korean hackers may be using AI to plan and carry out cryptocurrency thefts. Citing a Bloomberg report published on Monday, they point to the growing complexity and precision of recent attacks.
A record heist
Among the examples experts highlight is last week's record theft from Binance. The report stresses the scale and sophistication of the attacks.
No confirmation yet
The use of AI has not been confirmed. The report presents the claim as an expert assessment rather than a verified finding.
Why it matters
Attacks on crypto exchanges involve large sums. If AI is being used in attack planning, defenders may need new approaches as well.
