Google announced Thursday that the Gemini app is getting its Gemini 2.0 Flash AI model. The upgraded model “delivers fast responses and stronger performance across a number of key benchmarks, providing everyday help with tasks like brainstorming, learning or writing,” the company said in a post.

Hacking units from Iran abused Gemini the most, but North Korean and Chinese groups also tried their luck. None made any 'breakthroughs' and mostly used Gemini for mundane tasks.

Google has issued a warning about the potential security risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI) after state-sponsored hackers attempted to exploit its Gemini AI model.

Google's own cybersecurity teams found evidence of nation-state hackers using Gemini to help with some aspects of cyberattacks.

In recent months, a troubling discovery has been made about how North Korean hackers are using advanced AI tools to carry out cybercrimes and espionage. According to a report by Google, the North Korean government-backed cybercriminals have been using a powerful AI system called Google Gemini to enhance their hacking operations.
