Five Eyes warn that agentic AI is already in critical systems—and security isn’t keeping up
Trellix hit by significant breach, 15-year-old was busted for French gov't hack, CISA warns of Copy Fail exploits in the wild, Defender flags some legit DigiCert root certs as malware, Sri Lanka arrests 37 Chinese cyberscam operators, US health insurance exchanges share data with big tech, much more

These are the kind of people who say "well, yes, I fully agree that freezing to death is bad and we definitely should do something about it, but I would really like to make sure that we fully evaluated the danger of people burning themselves on a hot heater".
(Simplified. In reality, it's usually a long essay, followed by even more tiring debate.)

"Cognitive surrender" leads AI users to abandon logical thinking, research finds
Experiments show large majorities uncritically accepting "faulty" AI answers.

I love a good Star Trek trial episode. Maybe there could be a series that is just trials... "Star Trek Law" or something.
