Articles like this seem to be just a way to have something to write about that mentions LLMs. You could just as well say "Hacker used internet to attack government agencies in Mexico" and make the article about how their use of the internet greatly enhanced their ability to do so. Of course they used LLM tooling in 2025 to carry out an attack.
