“The actor achieved what we believe is the first documented case of a cyberattack largely executed without human intervention at scale—the AI autonomously discovered vulnerabilities in targets […]. Most significantly, this marks the first documented case of agentic AI successfully obtaining access to confirmed high-value targets for intelligence collection, including major technology corporations and government agencies.”

I really wonder how long it takes a beginner like me to go from beer belly to get ripped again with Tai Chi. I bet that by the end of November, my family won’t even recognize me.
