Google has issued a warning about the potential security risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI) after state-sponsored hackers attempted to exploit its Gemini AI model.

State-backed hackers from Iran, North Korea, China, and Russia tried to exploit Google's Gemini AI for malicious purposes, from phishing to malware creation.

In recent months, a troubling discovery has been made about how North Korean hackers are using advanced AI tools to carry out cybercrimes and espionage.
