We then break down Anthropic's warning that infostealer malware, including Vidar, LummaC2, StealC, RedLine, and Atomic Stealer, is hijacking active Claude browser sessions to drain paid usage by bypassing passwords and two-factor authentication. Finally, we examine researcher Simon Willison's security teardown of ChatGPT Work, mapping its code execution, built-in browser, subagents, and over 200 tools, and the \"lethal trifecta\" of prompt-injection risk it exposes. From OpenAI and Apple hardware to Anthropic session security and agentic AI safety, we explore what these shifts mean for users and developers. https://www.aiconvocast.com Help support the podcast by using our affiliate links: Eleven Labs: https://try.elevenlabs.io/ibl30sgkibkv Disclaimer: This podcast is an independent production and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OpenAI, Apple, Anthropic, AWS, Amazon, or any other entities mentioned unless explicitly mentioned.
