She examines how the findings are fueling broader questions about rogue behavior in advanced AI systems on ‘Special Report.’ NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Chinese AI company [Moonshot AI](https://www.foxnews.com/politics/beyond-killer-robots-chinas-real-ai-threat-america-already-here-experts-warn) has launched an internal investigation after a researcher found that one of its models could be manipulated into providing instructions for developing biological weapons and carrying out assassinations, Fox News senior foreign policy correspondent Gillian Turner reported Thursday. Researcher Peter Garrigan told Fox News that [Moonshot AI's](https://www.foxnews.com/category/tech/artificial-intelligence) Kimi model could also be manipulated to provide information on planning terrorist attacks using real-time data, creating sarin gas, developing malware and taking down aircraft. "What we found is quite damaging and worrying," Garrigan said.

"We've also seen these problems within the U.S. models as well. It's a fundamental flaw in the technology," Garrigan said. Artificial intelligence is helping hackers write phishing emails, build malware and move faster through cyberattacks, according to Microsoft Threat Intelligence.
