Hackers Claim to Sell Confidential Data of US Critical Infrastructure Manufacturer A group of hackers has claimed to have stolen confidential data from a US critical infrastructure manufacturer. The data includes employee information, customer data, and intellectual property. The hackers are demanding a ransom payment in exchange for not releasing the data. The manufacturer, which has not been named, is a major supplier of components to the US military and other government agencies. The stolen data could potentially be used to disrupt or even disable critical infrastructure systems. The hackers have not yet released any of the stolen data, but they have threatened to do so if the ransom payment is not made. The manufacturer has said that it is not going to pay the ransom, and it is working with law enforcement to investigate the attack.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a fundamental part of our lives, influencing everything from healthcare and education to finance and transportation. AI has the potential to bring about significant benefits, but it also presents significant ethical challenges that must be addressed. One of the primary ethical concerns with AI is the issue of bias. Machine learning algorithms are only as unbiased as the data they are trained on. If the data used to train AI systems is biased, the resulting algorithms will be biased as well. This can lead to serious consequences, such as discriminatory hiring practices or inaccurate medical diagnoses. Another ethical issue with AI is privacy. As AI systems become more sophisticated, they will be able to collect and analyze vast amounts of personal data. This raises concerns about how this data will be used and protected. For example, if an AI system is used to determine insurance premiums, it could potentially discriminate against i...
