I have two favorite stories in this issue of the AI Security Newsletter. Firstly, researchers at George Mason University have developed a creative approach to defend against AI-driven cyberattacks. Their Mantis framework can inject “malicious” prompts into attackers’ AI models when they rely on AI to launch cyberattacks, demonstrating the principle that anything AI processes…
