North Korea exploits ChatGPT for military ID forgery
North Korean hackers use ChatGPT to forge deepfake military IDs in targeted phishing campaign against South Korean defense entities
North Korean hackers use ChatGPT to forge deepfake military IDs in targeted phishing campaign against South Korean defense entities
– North Korea’s Kimsuky group used ChatGPT to create deepfake military IDs for a phishing campaign against defence organisations.
– Genians Security Centre detected the attack in July 2025, raising concerns about AI misuse in national security.
Researchers confirmed that the fake IDs were generated using OpenAI’s GPT-4o model, following metadata analysis.
The hackers bypassed safeguards by requesting ID “mock-ups” rather than actual documents. Malicious emails impersonated South Korean defence communications, misleading recipients into downloading malware disguised as ID cards.
Exploitation Monitoring
North Koreans have been increasingly using AI for intelligence gathering and evading sanctions. According to Anthropic’s recent report, North Korean workers have exploited the Claude AI model to obtain fraudulent employment at technology firms.
Genians’ director highlighted that AI is instrumental in planning attacks, crafting malware, and impersonating recruiters, demonstrating its implication in global intelligence missions.
The phishing primarily affected South Korean journalists and activists, with the sophisticated deepfake technology introducing serious concerns regarding AI misuse in national security.
Genians urged the implementation of enhanced security measures to combat these AI-driven threats.

SpaceX shifts focus to Moon with ambitious Lunar City plans
Elon Musk shifts SpaceX focus from Mars to a 2027 Moon landing, merging with xAI for AI satellite networks.
Elon Musk shifts SpaceX focus from Mars to a 2027 Moon landing, merging with xAI for AI satellite networks.
Elon Musk has set his sights closer to home—literally. SpaceX is now prioritizing the creation of a self-sustaining city on the Moon within the next decade. The ambitious plan marks a major shift from previous Mars-focused strategies, aiming for an uncrewed Starship landing as early as 2027 to support NASA’s Artemis program.
This pivot comes as SpaceX merges with Musk’s xAI, combining the companies into a massive $1.25 trillion valuation. Musk believes the Moon offers practical advantages for launches, making it a more strategic stepping stone for humanity’s future in space.
Alongside lunar ambitions, SpaceX is also developing satellite networks to back AI technologies in orbit. Despite the excitement, NASA’s Artemis program has faced delays, pushing the first crewed lunar flight to March due to technical issues.

Claude AI is transforming software engineering and productivity
Anthropic’s Claude AI now manages coding tasks, boosting productivity by 50% as engineers shift to oversight roles.
Anthropic’s Claude AI now manages coding tasks, boosting productivity by 50% as engineers shift to oversight roles.
Anthropic has confirmed that its AI, Claude, now handles almost all coding tasks at the company. Engineers are shifting from writing code to oversight and planning, marking a major change in how software development teams operate.
Users report a productivity boost of 50 percent since implementing Claude, highlighting the potential of AI to reshape workflows and day-to-day operations. The shift raises questions about the balance between human oversight and automated code generation.
The move has also affected markets, with shares of Indian IT services companies falling as investors assess the impact on traditional tech roles. Industry leaders stress that while AI can generate code, human input remains crucial for design, review, and strategic decision-making.
