I think we are going to see AI-assisted hacking, data exfiltration and sabotage, which might result in a complete cybersecurity crisis, which could have wide ranging geopolitical and global stability implications.

I think this is a current horizon threat. Models like GP4, and in particular, multimodal systems that demonstrate the capacity of these models to use tools, tells me this threat is already here. It's only a matter of time until we witness the first major incident.

Using AI to find potential security vulnerabilities in open source code for nefarious purposes will become popular in the intelligence communities, IMO.

Isn’t it also a tool to make the open source softwares more secure? Technically AI or not open source always had that strength/weakness.

@DerekRoss @brockm Not just open source code, either. A lot of closed source software has source available clauses for large customers such as governments, and even when they don't, I'd question the competency of a spy service that isn't trying to get someone to leak them the source code of applications that are important to an enemy's abilities.
