How some countries are misusing Google’s AI Tool, Gemini

Google’s AI tool, Gemini, is designed with safety measures to prevent misuse. However, government-backed groups from countries like China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia have attempted to exploit it for harmful purposes. These groups, known as Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), have used Gemini to gather information on military and intelligence targets, understand software weaknesses, and assist in coding tasks.
Additionally, Information Operations (IO) groups from these nations have utilized Gemini for translation, refining the tone of their messages, and disguising their true identities to operate secretly.
Despite these attempts, Google reports that most efforts to misuse Gemini have been unsuccessful. Many have tried to bypass Gemini’s safety protocols using known methods, but these attempts have largely failed.
This situation highlights the challenges in preventing AI misuse. While Google has been effective in stopping direct harmful actions through Gemini, malicious actors can still use the AI’s capabilities to support their activities in less obvious ways. This underscores the need for ongoing vigilance and improvement in AI safety measures.
For a more detailed understanding, you can read Google’s full Threat Intelligence Group report.
Google adds extra security step to Android log-in prompts

Google has enhanced the security of its log-in prompts on Android devices. Previously, when signing into your Google Account, you would receive a prompt asking, “Are you trying to sign in?” and could confirm by tapping “Yes, it’s me.”
Now, with version 25.02.34 of Google Play Services, an additional verification step is required. After confirming, you’ll be prompted to authenticate using your fingerprint, PIN, face recognition, or another two-factor authentication (2FA) method. This change aims to provide an extra layer of protection for your account.
While the added step may slightly increase the time it takes to log in, the enhanced security is a valuable trade-off. iOS users will experience a similar update, with the Google app or Gmail handling the prompt instead of Play Services.
