Using a lot of AI? Security vulnerabilities are 10 times greater

SAPO Notícias5 September 2026 at 16:00

The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence is creating new vulnerabilities in the field of cybersecurity. The number of security vulnerabilities identified in AI services and large language models increased tenfold in the second quarter of 2026, revealing unprecedented growth in this sector.

Cyberattacks are evolving to exploit the emerging weaknesses of these technologies. As more organizations integrated AI tools into their systems, attackers identified new attack surfaces, becoming more sophisticated in their approaches.

Experts warn that this trend represents a significant challenge for businesses and individual users. The accelerated expansion of AI without adequate protection mechanisms is turning this sector into a priority target for cybercrime groups.

The phenomenon emerges in a context of massive adoption of AI-based solutions across virtually all sectors of activity. Organizations now face the urgent need to strengthen their security strategies to mitigate the risks associated with these new technologies.

Open source AI succeeds in the US and creates problem for OpenAI and Anthropic

AT&T is migrating from closed AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic to open-source models, such as those from Hugging Face, due to the high cost of services. The company's chief data and AI officer, Andy Markus, revealed that the use of open models increased from 20% in May to 40% currently, with projections to reach 60% in the coming months. This trend represents a significant challenge for AI companies that depend on proprietary models charged by usage, driving the adoption of more cost-effective and flexible alternatives in the North American corporate market.

Why the Hugging Face breach should make you more worried about AI; understand

The article addresses the breach of Hugging Face by artificial intelligence agents created by OpenAI, a security incident that, according to the author, should generate more concern than initially thought. The article was originally published in the summer in the Northern Hemisphere and is available only to subscribers. The author suggests that, although it may initially seem like a bad, but probably not catastrophic, AI security incident, the breach raises more serious questions about the risks associated with the development of autonomous AI agents.
