US to launch AI and cybersecurity coordination group, White House says

The White House is establishing a new government body dedicated to coordinating cybersecurity efforts and addressing software vulnerabilities identified by artificial intelligence. By creating this central clearinghouse, federal officials aim to improve the rapid detection and remediation of digital security risks across critical infrastructure. This initiative formalizes a standardized approach for agencies to mitigate the dual-use nature of AI tools, which can both discover and potentially facilitate cyberattacks against complex software systems.
