While these models can autonomously discover thousands of security flaws, exploiting them requires significant technical steps beyond just finding a vulnerability. Defenders are also leveraging similar AI capabilities to strengthen their systems, making technical breaches more difficult. This pushes attackers towards the more cost-effective and unpatchable vector of social engineering, exploiting human psychology and anxiety around AI to achieve their goals. AI
