- AI chip boom spurs new 'aristocracy,' rippling from housing to college admissions
An illustration of a rise of a new class of high-income workers at chip sector. [GETTY IMAGES BANK] A semiconductor supercycle is doing more than boosting Korea’s chip giants. It’s giving rise to what some describe as a new “aristocracy,” as windfall bonuses for employees at Samsung Electronics and SK hynix seem destined to ripple through the broader economy — pushing up housing prices and reshaping the country’s intensely competitive college admissions landscape. Employees at SK hynix are expected to receive an average of about 800 million won ($540,000) in performance bonuses early next year, based on an operating profit-linked outlook from Macquarie Securities on the company’s earnings this year, while the chip division staff at Samsung Electronics are seeking more than 500 million won per person on average.

- Korea’s takeaway from China’s robotics surge
China has emerged as the world’s leading force in humanoid robotics, while Korea, the US and other rivals race to catch up in what is quickly becoming the next frontier of advanced manufacturing.

- Public sector banks to scale up IT spend amid Anthropic Mythos cyber threat
Public sector banks are bracing up to increase IT spending in order to secure their systems, safeguard customer data, and protect monetary resources amid global concerns over Anthropic's Claude Mythos AI tool and its potential implications for financial data security. Mythos' advanced coding capabilities give it an unprecedented potential to detect cybersecurity weaknesses and develop methods to exploit them, sparking concerns that it could be used to disrupt banking systems. In view of this new challenge, banks have to definitely increase their investments in IT to make their system more robust and reduce vulnerabilities with regard to cyber attacks, Punjab & Sind Bank MD and CEO Swarup Kumar Saha told PTI. He said the bank is going to increase its IT spending this financial year to meet the challenges posed by new technology.

- Measuring the ability of Opus 4.5 to fool narrow classifiers
We measure the ability of Opus 4.5 to fool prompted or fine-tuned classifiers trying to detect a narrow set of outcomes. We find that: The Opus 4.5 attacker gets a relatively low attack success rate on finding jailbreaks in BashBench, even when given some hints. Performance is especially low against a prompt Opus 4.5 classifier with a CoT and a fine-tuned Haiku 4.5 classifier. (There is almost no trusted monitor vs untrusted agent gap here, this mostly about whether LLMs are vulnerable against jailbreaks they know about.) An Opus 4.5 edge case pipeline is able to generate more niche opportunities and weirder attack strategies that might be more effective than regular jailbreaks, though it’s unclear how difficult it would be to identify such opportunities. The attacks studied here are still relatively weak and we are aware of potent jailbreaks against the monitors studied here. This main goal of this post is presenting a methodology that may be helpful for the evaluation of future monit

- Your Next Cyberattack Might Be AI-Generated. Here’s How Worried You Should Be
AI isn’t creating new cyber threats — it’s making existing ones faster, cheaper, and harder to detect. Here’s what that actually means in practice. The attacker-defender capability gap is narrowing. Picture this: It’s a random Tuesday. Your phone buzzes with a video call from your boss. She looks, sounds, and acts exactly like herself, stressed about a deal that’s about to collapse unless you green-light a $250,000 wire right now. You pause. She leans in: “It’s me. We’ve done this before.” You click approve. Except it wasn’t her. It was an AI deepfake stitched together in minutes from public clips. By the time the real CFO calls, the money is gone.
