JPMorgan CEO: AI is not just a tool, but also a threat

Jinse Finance reported that on April 15, JPMorgan (JPM.N) CEO Jamie Dimon said on Tuesday that although artificial intelligence tools may eventually help companies defend against cyberattacks, at this stage, they actually make companies more vulnerable. "Artificial intelligence makes things worse and more difficult," Dimon told analysts during Tuesday morning’s earnings call. "It does bring additional vulnerabilities and perhaps in the long run, it will also provide better ways to strengthen ourselves." These remarks indicate that artificial intelligence, a technology regarded by companies as a means to boost productivity, has also evolved into a serious threat as it offers criminals new methods to infiltrate technical systems. Last week, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell convened a meeting with bank CEOs to discuss the risks posed by Anthropic’s cutting-edge AI model Mythos, which is specifically designed for defensive cybersecurity workflows.
