Background for this topic.

Artificial intelligence (AI) describes computer systems that perform tasks such as recognizing patterns, making predictions, understanding language, or generating content. In security reporting, the term commonly includes machine-learning models used for detection and analysis, as well as generative AI applications that produce text, code, images, or other outputs.

AI can help analyze security telemetry, prioritize vulnerabilities, and support investigations, but its outputs can be wrong or manipulated. Important attack surfaces include prompt injection that steers an application into unintended actions, sensitive data being exposed through prompts or model outputs, and excessive permissions granted to AI systems that use external tools. Models can also be degraded by poisoned training data or evaded with carefully crafted inputs. Practitioners should protect training and operational data, limit model access and tool permissions, test for adversarial behavior, and require appropriate human validation before high-impact decisions.

Why AI Still Fails to Catch 'Authorized' Scams

AI Models can Flag Anomalies, but Still Struggle to Read Human DeceptionReal-time payments settle in seconds - faster than fraud models can think. With most authorized push payment scam losses in Australia occurring over instant payment rails, artificial intelligence models built to spot unusual patterns often miss the one thing they can't predict: human deception.

Longer Conversations Can Break AI Safety Filters

Adversarial Success Rates Jump Tenfold in Longer AI Chats, Finds CiscoOpen-weight language models can say "no" only for so long. Their safety filters break down when pushed through longer conversations, exposing flaws that one-shot tests fail to catch, found researchers at Cisco. The longer a user engages, the higher the probability of failure.
