Autonomous Ransomware, the AI Memory Squeeze, and the Customer Service Bot Doom Loop

In today’s episode of AI in Flow, hosts Claire and Peter break down a packed set of stories shaping AI in the real world: Sysdig’s report of a fully autonomous AI agent executing an end-to-end ransomware attack, and how defenders need to adapt as response windows shrink. They also cover how AI can strengthen security, after a researcher used Claude to uncover a serious vulnerability affecting a major ticketing platform. On the infrastructure side, they explore SK Hynix’s push to expand high-bandwidth memory and why HBM shortages are rippling into everyday device prices. Plus: South Korea’s fast-tracked chip and data center buildout, Taiwan’s chip-boom impact on local affordability, Vietnam’s new list of high-risk AI categories, AI in next-generation defense programs, Citi’s “two AI races” for banks, and why badly designed support chatbots keep customers stuck in a frustrating loop.About Six & FlowSix & Flow is a digital transformation consultancy helping businesses adapt, grow, and thrive in a fast-changing world.
