GMO CEO blames a 27k-server breach on AI; the hackers call it a one-line beginner mistake
A public back-and-forth over what really went wrong.
@kiokunir posted on Monday that the GMO CEO blamed the breach of about 27,000 VPS servers on "AI's explosive evolution", and that the hackers publicly replied it was a beginner's one-line mistake with nothing to do with AI. The post drew about 5,700 likes.
Both versions come through the post and neither is independently confirmed there. A related post says the attackers also published a rebuttal to the CEO's blog.
Why it mattersBlaming AI for a breach is becoming a common line. Whether it holds up here depends on the technical details that the company and researchers publish.
