Researchers Weaponize Machine Learning Models With Ransomware.
* Trained ML models can be infected with malicious payloads. When ML developers or MLops platform loads the model, it can infect the machine with malware like #ransomware.
"These models are also downloaded to various machine-learning ops platforms, which can be pretty scary because they can have access to Amazon S3 buckets and steal training data"
Also hackers can use it for mining cryptocurrencies since most of the machine learning developers machine will have GPU
