Episode 88 AI solves a math problem

This week's episode follows a single thread: artificial intelligence, from the ways it is being weaponised, to the governance frameworks being built around it, all the way to something that stopped the global mathematics community in its tracks.

Here is what we cover:

⚠️ Hacktivist groups Anonymous Nigeria, Nullsec Nigeria and the 404 Crew launched #OpSouthAfrica, targeting the Civil Aviation Authority, the Social Security Agency, the National Space Agency and more. Full databases, citizen records, financial data. This is not a drill, and South Africa's cyber resilience is being tested in real time.

🔑 A CISA contractor left the keys to three AWS GovCloud accounts in a public GitHub repository. Named "Private CISA." Open since November 2025. The agency that teaches the world how to do security, didn't. The irony writes itself.

📉 Meta cut 8,000 jobs this week, including its integrity and cybersecurity teams, while committing up to $145 billion to AI. Its own employees described being used to train the models that will replace them. Sound familiar?

🤖 AI agents are no longer theoretical. Microsoft's VP of Data and AI Security published a sharp, practical framework this week for governing the autonomous AI systems already being deployed in enterprise environments. We walk through all five controls.

🧮 OpenAI's reasoning model independently disproved a mathematical conjecture posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. Eighty years. Verified by four of the world's leading mathematicians. General-purpose AI, no specialised training, extraordinary result.
