This weekly update covers important data privacy and security news that affects companies working with artificial intelligence systems. One major story involves Mercor, a $10 billion company that helps train AI models for companies like OpenAI and Anthropic. Mercor suffered a serious data breach where hackers stole training data, source code, and internal information. This shows how important it is to protect the data used to teach AI systems. Meanwhile, governments are creating new privacy rules for AI. The United States released an updated NIST Privacy Framework that specifically addresses risks from AI systems, like when AI accidentally reveals personal information. In Europe, new laws are being created to control how AI is used, including rules against creating fake nude images with AI. Security experts also warned that hackers from North Korea released over 1,700 harmful software packages that could attack developers building AI tools. Large data breaches also happened at companies like Crunchbase and CarGurus, affecting millions of people's personal information. These stories show that as AI becomes more popular, keeping data safe and creating good privacy rules is more important than ever.
