AI company Anthropic warns its AI chatbot Claude is being used to perform large-scale cyberattacks, with ransoms exceeding $500,000 in some cases. Despite “sophisticated” guardrails, AI infrastructure firm Anthropic says cybercriminals are still finding ways to misuse its AI chatbot Claude to carry out large-scale cyberattacks. In a “Threat Intelligence” report released Wednesday, members of Anthropic’s Threat Intelligence team, including Alex Moix, Ken Lebedev and Jacob Klein shared several cases where criminals had misused the Claude chatbot, with some attacks demanding over $500,000 in ransom.
