Will hackers use your own AI against you?
Businesses have spent years asking what AI can do for their employees. Fewer have asked what it would do for an intruder inside an employee’s account.
Thermo Fisher chairman unloads more stock
Thermo Fisher Scientific Chairman Paul Meister has sold off another 275,000 shares of his company for more than $12 million, according to a Tuesday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The filing – the second within a week – shows that Meister continues to sell off his shares in the company, as part of a prearranged plan set, shortly after Waltham, Mass.-based Thermo Electron bought the Hampton, N.H.-based Fisher Scientific in November.
From Jan. 3 to Jan. 8, Meister – who was vice president of the Fisher board — sold 920,000 shares, worth more than $40 million, including some 277,000 shares of exercised options, leaving about 350,000 shares of Fisher Thermo Scientific in his portfolio. Although the prices were at a 52-week high at the time – about $45 a share — Thermo Fisher’s stock price continued to rise, crossing the $47 mark on Wednesday. – BOB SANDERS
