So, it's finally Friday. Two consecutive days of data breach notifications really made this week special, and not in a good way.
Yes, this is a rant. No, I'm not sorry. AI corporations are empowering cybercriminals with half-baked concoctions. If the mythical Mythos can dig up a few obscure vulnerabilities, so can cybercriminals, using your corporate toys. We are losing the cybersecurity battle, if it hasn't already been lost.
No, this is not defeatism. Defenders are using AI to defend, doing the same thing they have always done, which is to defend. Attackers are using AI to attack, doing the same nefarious business with new, shiny, half-baked toys gifted to them by AI corporations. A blind person can see that the two are running on two separate train tracks that will never meet.
We are all are losing this battle. Do something that actually puts the defenders on the same track as the attackers.

both sides can use the tools, mozilla and others are also giving away tools to plug in and make it easier to hunt for vulnerabilities and by extension or a little tweaking attack them. It's taking the back and forth "arms" race to insane speeds, the humans, especially in smaller projects or companies will have a harder time keeping up (or if they were relying on being not worth the time to really go after as now it's a couple of clicks and a prompt)
