- New research finds that the world's most advanced AI models can blueprint cyberattacks on critical services like power grids and water systems with alarming success rates.
- Critical infrastructure operators are running out of time as top-tier frontier models gain these offensive cyber capabilities, according to the research.
Why it matters: The offensive cyber capability of frontier AI models is advancing faster than defenses for critical infrastructure, meaning power and water operators must adapt to AI-generated attacks rather than only human-authored ones.
