Overview
A grant to Georgetown University will support the Center for Security and Emerging Technology’s (CSET) CyberAI Program.

It will examine what the advent of powerful AI systems means for cybersecurity and begin by framing the subject matter in four areas: (a) an introduction of the intersection of cybersecurity and AI; (b) current and future AI capabilities for offensive cyber operations; (c) current and future AI capabilities for defensive cyber operations; and (d) an introduction to the idea of accident risk in cyber operations.
