HACKERS CAN READ PRIVATE AI-ASSISTANT CHATS EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE ENCRYPTED

Researchers discovered a side-channel attack that can decipher encrypted AI assistant chats with high accuracy on specific topics by exploiting token transmission within the encryption. The attack utilizes large language models to reconstruct token sequences into readable text, potentially exposing sensitive user conversations. Major AI assistants, except for Google Gemini, are vulnerable to this method, prompting providers to seek mitigation strategies.
