Beijings new legislation encourages autonomous driving technologies to eventually permit driverless taxis and public buses. With effect from April 1, the rules allow autonomous cars to apply for road testing if they pass safety evaluations and road tests. In addition to promoting the creation of intelligent road infrastructure, the city helps integrate autonomous vehicles into private automobiles, urban buses, trams, and taxis. Wuhan has, in the meanwhile, authorised rules to promote connected, intelligent cars. With at least 19 cities testing robotaxis and robobuses, China is speeding up its selfdriving technology experiments. Significant progress in the autonomous vehicle industry is indicated by the expansion of robotaxi fleets by companies such as Pony.ai and Baidus Apollo Go. Read More..

Although AT&T and Verizon acknowledged that the Chineseaffiliated Salt Typhoon operation had targeted their systems with cyberattacks, they claimed their U.S. networks were safe. AT&T stated that it is actively collaborating with authorities to lessen the threat and that there is currently no activity by nationstate actors. Verizon said the incident was contained following independent confirmation. Data, geolocation, and call recording were all compromised when Salt Typhoon allegedly gained access to several telecom networks. Officials were encouraged by the U.S. Cybersecurity Agency to use encrypted communication apps after these instances. While Senator Ted Cruz stressed the need to address network vulnerabilities immediately, Senator Ben Ray Lujan called it the "largest telecommunications hack in U.S. history." The assaults highlight the escalating cybersecurity issues associated with Chinese cyberattacks. Read More..

ProRussian Hackers Target Italian Websites in Coordinated Cyberattack

Italys cyber security agency said hackers temporarily disrupted about 10 official websites on Saturday, including those of the Foreign Ministry and Mi

Italys cyber security agency said hackers temporarily disrupted about 10 official websites on Saturday, including those of the Foreign Ministry and Milans Linate and Malpensa airports. Using Telegram, the proRussian hacker collective Noname05716 claimed responsibility for the Distributed Denial of Service DDoS attack, characterising it as a form of vengeance against Italys alleged "Russophobia." When a DDoS assault occurs, networks are overloaded with data in an attempt to interfere with normal operations. The cyber security agency lessened the impact in two hours, and there were no aircraft delays. The airport operator, SEA, reported that despite the internet disruptions, the airports mobile apps continued to work. The assault highlights persistent cyber threats associated with geopolitical unrest. Read More..

ChatGPT Search Vulnerable to Manipulation by Hidden Text on Websites

According to reports, website creators can use hidden language to manipulate ChatGPT Search, OpenAIs AIpowered web search function. The Guardian claim

According to reports, website creators can use hidden language to manipulate ChatGPT Search, OpenAIs AIpowered web search function. The Guardian claims developers can take advantage of this vulnerability by adding invisible HTML or CSSbased content to their web pages, allowing them to provide ChatGPT with inaccurate or skewed data. Tests showed that ChatGPT ignored product defects and gave excessively optimistic answers after adding hidden positive remarks. Furthermore, prompt injections—hidden commands in website code intended to change the AIs behaviour and possibly even deliver malicious code—can affect the feature. There are serious questions regarding the integrity of AIgenerated responses since, if left unchecked, these flaws could enable websites to mislead users or obtain unfair commercial advantages.

OpenAI’s ChatGPT Faces Major Disruption Linked to Microsoft Data Center Outage

OpenAIs API, ChatGPTs AI chatbot, and its texttovideo tool, Sora, were all impacted by a major outage that began at 130 P.M. ET on Thursday. "Internal

OpenAIs API, ChatGPTs AI chatbot, and its texttovideo tool, Sora, were all impacted by a major outage that began at 130 P.M. ET on Thursday. "Internal server error" warnings were sent to users, and around 200 P.M. ET, OpenAI confirmed significant error rates on its status page. By 615 P.M. ET, Sora had resumed operations, and APIs had started to recover, but ChatGPT was still partially down. A power failure at its South Central US data centre was attributed to an "upstream provider," most likely Microsoft, OpenAIs cloud partner. Xbox Cloud gameplay, storage, and APIs were all impacted. 5 P.M. ET restored power, but after other recent ChatGPT disruptions, the incident underscores the risks of cloudreliant systems.
