LLM services are being hit by hackers looking to sell on private info

Using cloud-hosted large language models (LLM) can be quite expensive, which is why hackers have apparently begun started stealing, and selling, login credentials to the tools. Cybersecurity researchers Sysdig Threat Research Team recently spotted one such campaign, dubbing it LLMjacking. In its report, Sysdig said it observed a threat actor abusing a vulnerability in the … Read more

Gurman: Apple Working on On-Device LLM for Generative AI Features

Apple is developing its own large language model (LLM) that runs on-device to prioritize speed and privacy, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman reports. Writing in his “Power On” newsletter, Gurman said that Apple’s LLM underpins upcoming generative AI features. “All indications” apparently suggests that it will run entirely on-device, rather than via the cloud like most existing … Read more

Startup claims to boost LLM performance using standard memory instead of GPU HBM — but experts remain unconvinced by the numbers despite promising CXL technology

MemVerge, a provider of software designed to accelerate and optimize data-intensive applications, has partnered with Micron to boost the performance of LLMs using Compute Express Link (CXL) technology.  The company’s Memory Machine software uses CXL to reduce idle time in GPUs caused by memory loading. The technology was demonstrated at Micron’s booth at Nvidia GTC … Read more
