At last they are catching up, we reported on this very issue just last month: AI - the fallout:

Now tech leaders are warning of potential risks:

and ChatGPT is banned in Italy:

We need training for grey-thinkers in IT, this should be taught at all levels of education.  The only safe way forward is to have groups of trained grey-thinkers curtailing future issues.

Phone public charging points, potential security issues
___________________________________________________________________________________________

Last week the FBI warned people against using public phone-charging stations, worrying that the combination power-data port can be used to inject malware onto the devices: Avoid using free charging stations in airports, hotels, or shopping centers. The public USB ports can be used to introduce malware and monitoring software via these ports. https://twitter.com/FBIDenver/status/1643947117650538498

I have often thought about the possible security issues with an ecar and remote charging; imagine what will happen when malware/trojans get in your ecar.  Take care (what a Juxtapose: ecar ... care).
