But Does AI ultimately favor the attacker or the defender? Or where does AI sit in the crux of this?

Well...

Sadly, I believe that it favors the attacker.

And some of the reasons why are, at least to me, a little bit disappointing.

When you are building and training some of these LLMs and generative systems, you have to think and consider some of the training data that you use.

And if you don't, you're putting a lot of garbage in, garbage out.

you also are adding certain biases and certain, we'll say, attitudes and types of information that absolutely benefit an attacker.

And there's been questions of, you know, do they care about oversight or are they just looking at, you know, who's controlling the mechanism or whatnot? Like, I guess, how do we look at this idea of oversight and, you know, how does it relate to kind of currently what's going on out there?
