that's how NSA attacked SSH and HTTPS (most likely). it's so simple, as always. ingenious.
note: not applicable to bitcoin, the vulnerable spot here is key generation, not the math itself :)

Algorithm Soup The (Almost) Secret Algorithm Researchers Used to Break Thousands of RSA Keys RSA encryption allows for anyone to send me messages that only I can decode. To set this up, I select two large random primes $latex p$ and $latex q$ (each of which is hundreds of bits long), and r… note: not applicable to bitcoin, the vulnerable spot here is key generation, not the math itself :)

when robots get sufficiently smart, they start to avoid work too 🙂
> CycleGAN learns to “hide” information about a source image into the images it generates in a nearly imperceptible, high frequency signal. This trick ensures that the generator can recover the original sample and thus satisfy the cyclic consistency requirement, while the generated image remains realistic
