AI “overrated and overhyped” say cybercriminals
The verdict on artificial intelligence (AI) from the real experts is finally in; professional cybercriminal fraternities have judged AI to be “overrated, overhyped and redundant,” according to fresh research from cybersecurity firm Sophos. It has, hitherto, been accepted wisdom in the cybersecurity industry that cybercriminals, free from any regulatory authority or moral scruples, were among the first to harness the awesome power of AI to create bespoke and virtually unstoppable malware. However, having infiltrated the Dark Web forums where top professional cybercriminals discuss their trade, Sophos reports that the cybercrime sector has thoroughly tested the capabilities of AI and found it wanting.
United States to regulate AI
US President Joe Biden has issued an executive order aimed at regulating artificial intelligence (AI), urging Congress to pass the necessary legislation as swiftly as possible. The announcement was made only 48 hours before tomorrow’s Global AI Summit in the UK, which US Vice President Kamala Harris will attend. The push to swiftly legislate indicates that the threat of AI is being taken seriously globally, with governments taking a coordinated approach. A mass of legislation and backroom deals with IT companies is surely set to follow.
