AI has become a popular topic in recent years due to the headline-grabbing developments in generative AI tools. Machine learning (ML) has a long and deeply storied history, with AI researchers building systems that come close to, and often surpass, the best humans in the world on a specific problem. However, these successes have also laid bare how much difference remains between an AI and a human. In the short-term, the biggest impact of AI on cybersecurity will be in the areas of automation, analytics, and data-driven decision-making. In the long-term, AI will be used to create more sophisticated systems that can detect and respond to cyber threats.
