AI is changing cybersecurity in quick and terrifying ways

Imagine I came to you with the following proposition: You will give me trillions of dollars. In exchange, I will build a machine that pollutes the environment, steals from every artist and academic on the planet, raises electricity bills and computer hardware prices, and can do marginally useful stuff like fill out spreadsheets and write basic code. To sweeten the deal, I will throw in a bridge in Brooklyn. Then allow me to further pique your interest. This machine will also make all of your software less secure while enabling criminals and state-sponsored hackers to carry out more sophisticated cyberattacks than ever before.
