AI devices that watch and listen raise privacy threat; is on-device the answer?
AI-enabled consumer electronics are moving quickly into daily life, fuelling backlash over privacy as devices such as TVs with background recording, earbuds that offer call recording and smart glasses that can film what wearers see become commonplace. Mozilla Foundation communications director Lauren Hendry Parsons warned of “surveillance chic” and said privacy-by-design must protect bystanders as well as buyers. AGI CEO Div Garg said AI wearables need not send data to the cloud if models run on-device.

Tech Insight: Beyond security threats, fears grow over AI abuse to hack systems and regulations
Interest is rising in the cybersecurity impact of Anthropic’s AI model Mythos, which is reported to be highly effective at finding software vulnerabilities. As experiences using Mythos are shared by organisations including the Mozilla Foundation and Palo Alto Networks, concerns over AI-driven threats are growing. Security expert Bruce Schneier says such AI could be used not only to attack critical systems but also to exploit loopholes in tax codes and complex regulations, potentially causing greater damage.

Mythos warning puts AI security paradigm shift at crossroads
Security concerns sparked by Anthropic\'s AI model Claude Mythos are spreading across government and industry in South Korea, with growing calls to rethink defenses as AI can detect vulnerabilities and generate attack code. A Cloud Security Alliance report says the time from vulnerability discovery to exploitation has shrunk sharply. South Korean ministries have held an emergency meeting, while experts urge stronger governance, standardized information sharing and automated, AI-driven defenses alongside basic asset management.
