Weekly Tech News: Microsoft AI Flaw, Uber Robotaxis, and Anthropic Export Controls AutoJack Vulnerability: Microsoft Discloses RCE Flaw in AI Agents Microsoft researchers have uncovered a critical cybersecurity exploit chain dubbed AutoJack, which severely impacts web-enabled artificial intelligence agents.
