So can you say more about that? voice-verified

How is AI making attacks better? voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

So one of the reasons a lot of people use AI is for language, right? voice-verified

And AI breaks the language barrier. voice-verified

Those emails from someone claiming to be a Nigerian prince written haphazardly in Google Translate are a thing of the past. voice-verified

Now Ryan says he's seen tidal waves of malicious emails in almost perfect Japanese. voice-verified

Then there's the fact that AI makes attacks harder to spot. voice-verified

Think hyper-personalized emails, deepfake voice calls, deepfake video calls. voice-verified

Lastly, there are certain AI models that can find vulnerabilities in computer code itself. voice-verified

Like with the vulnerability detection work? voice-verified

Yes, but if bad actors get their hands on those same vulnerability detecting models, that's bad. voice-verified

That worries cybersecurity folks like Ryan. voice-verified

So that's why there's a lot of chatter about this new model from the company Anthropic called Claude Mythos that is really good at discovering computer code vulnerabilities. voice-verified

It helps defenders, but it could also help attackers. voice-verified

In June, President Trump signed an executive order about this. voice-verified

The administration wants to require developers to submit certain AI models for government review 30 days before going public with them. voice-verified

All of this is to mitigate the cybersecurity threats posed by AI. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

But their argument now is these tools could be dangerous in the hands of cyber criminals and other bad actors. voice-verified
