Attacks<\/strong>: In 2025, U.S. companies like Anthropic and OpenAI reported large-scale cyber attacks using their AI models for espionage, illustrating the first documented case of AI-executed cyberattacks without substantial human intervention.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Increased Threats From Foreign Adversaries<\/strong>: Following U.S. strikes, Iran has intensified cyber operations leveraging AI to target Western infrastructure, prompting Palo Alto Networks to report over 60 Iranian-aligned groups using AI to exploit Western systems.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vulnerability of U.S. Infrastructure<\/strong>: U.S. cyber defenses are inadequate, while AI rapidly integrates into American life and economic activities, increasing the potential damage from countries like China, Russia, and Iran.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Historical Cybersecurity Failures<\/strong>: For decades, Western companies have struggled against sophisticated espionage and intellectual property theft by Chinese actors, often missing their opportunities to protect critical technologies and innovations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strategic Importance of AI Infrastructure<\/strong>: AI infrastructure, featuring chips, data, software, and specialized hardware, attracts substantial interest from adversaries due to its economic and strategic value and the fragility of its security defenses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attacks on AI Systems<\/strong>: Hackers target AI systems aiming to steal or corrupt intellectual property, disrupt AI-powered services, and erode user trust by undermining system reliability during crises.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Immediate Measures Needed<\/strong>: U.S. policymakers must adopt strategies focused on improving defenses at chip, network\/data, and human security levels to bolster national cyber-resilience and deter further cyber activities by foreign adversaries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Holistic Approach for Strengthening Defenses<\/strong>: The U.S. should designate AI as critical infrastructure, combine lessons from successful foreign cyber strategies, and implement robust and collaborative measures involving industry and government to secure AI infrastructure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>America\u2019s Endangered AI | Foreign Affairs
