AI Now Fights The AI It Created To Fight Other AI

The cybersecurity landscape, much like a particularly unhelpful self-help guru, has apparently decided the best way out of a problem created by machines is… more machines. Faced with an insurmountable deluge of digital threats, a veritable digital tsunami of malicious code operating at speeds no human mind could possibly comprehend, enterprises have been feeling rather beleaguered. But fear not, for the cavalry has arrived, and it’s entirely synthetic.

CrowdStrike and NVIDIA, ever the benevolent titans of tech, are now offering a cutting-edge solution: an open-source artificial intelligence designed to engage in algorithmic fisticuffs with its equally sophisticated, albeit malevolent, brethren. It’s a delightful new paradigm where the only way to win the automated war is to escalate it with even more automation. One can only assume this elegant solution will lead to a definitive end to all digital conflict, rather than simply moving the goalposts further into the realm of inscrutable silicon skirmishes.
