Tech Companies Call for Defense Against AI-Driven Cyberattacks

Major tech companies, including OpenAI and Microsoft, have called for a defensive surge against AI-driven cyberattacks. In a joint letter released on Thursday, they warned that such attacks are set to become much more prevalent in the coming months as model capabilities increase. The letter urged governments and businesses to accelerate trusted access programs, allowing select companies to use more powerful models. It emphasized that cybersecurity must be an immediate priority, especially as criminal entities increasingly leverage large language models for breaches.
