Google claims it disrupted a cyberattack where hackers used AI to help discover and exploit an unknown software vulnerability. According to reports, the AI system accelerated the process of bypassing two factor authentication on enterprise software before the attack was stopped.

This feels like a major turning point because it proves AI is already useful for offensive cyber operations in the real world. Security experts have been warning about this for years, but now there is finally a public example that sounds credible and serious.
