Downfall affects all processors based on the Skylake, Kaby Lake, Whiskey Lake, Ice Lake, Comet Lake, Coffee Lake, Rocket Lake, and Tiger Lake architectures, along with a handful of others. I so appreciate these "researchers" finding these flaws
I suppose it's better than the black hat folk figuring them out
No one tell Hitler, he'll get so upset. (I'd be surprised if there isn't a version of "that video" by the end of the week)

The “AI Cyber Challenge,” announced at the Black Hat USA conference in Las Vegas Wednesday, is meant to pair experts with AI models produced by Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI to develop systems to identify and fix software vulnerabilities. "The real question is not whether machines think but whether men do."
