AI spending fears hammer Google shares, triggering massive one-day loss - Fox News

3 hours ago Pinned Elon Musk warns AI agents could launch similar attacks on financial systems after Binance hack Elon Musk warned late Thursday that while humans were behind the hack of Binance , the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, similar attacks could one day be carried out by artificial intelligence agents. "Super intelligence agents will at some point do this to gain currency for themselves, not a human," Musk wrote on X, using President Donald Trump's preferred term for AI. Earlier this month, AI researcher Jeffrey Ladish told Fox News Digital that autonomous AI agents could eventually become major players in financial markets— and potentially dominate them —if the companies developing the technology are not sufficiently reined in. It's not yet clear if the hackers who made off with $6.3 billion of crypto stored on the Binance exchange used AI. Binance has halted all withdrawals and deposits and has pledged to make its customers whole. Posted by James Cirrone Share
