Show Notes

On November 10, CNAS hosted a panel on recent advances in frontier artificial intelligence (AI) models and their potential to transform cyber offense and defense alike.

Featuring the new report, Tipping the Scales: Emerging AI Capabilities and the Cyber Offense-Defense Balance, CNAS Technology and National Security Program expert Caleb Withers examines how capable today’s AI systems are at cyber-relevant tasks, which emerging capabilities matter most, and what defenders, policymakers, and industry should do to prepare. The discussion drew on those insights to cover a range of topics from recent advances in frontier AI intelligence models to the attacker-defender imbalance in cybersecurity operations, and more.

The panel featured: 

  • Moderator Derek B. Johnson, journalist, CyberScoop
  • Caleb Withers, Fellow, Center for a New American Security
  • Andrew Lohn, Senior Fellow, Georgetown’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology
  • Chris Rohlf, Security Engineer, Meta
