Recent revelations of a Chinese phishing campaign targeting NASA and US defense software researchers starkly illustrates ongoing espionage and cybersecurity risks, even as the Pentagon accelerates AI adoption and NIST advances risk management frameworks.
Frontier AI models are now weaponized on both sides of the cyber kill chain. IBM's autonomous security launch, a SANS Institute identity crisis, and Harvard's governance alarm signal that the old rules of cyber defense no longer apply.
Chinese AI firms are selling real-time targeting intelligence on U.S. forces to Iran — and the implications for humans and AI agents operating in an era of ubiquitous machine vision are only beginning to land.
Authoritarian regimes are deploying the AI tools democratic societies created — without the governance guardrails we built in. Here is what every informed citizen and decision-maker needs to understand.
