IS AI SUPREMACY THE RIGHT PATH TO ENSURE CYBER-SECURITY?

Artificial intelligence (AI), or behind this branding name, Machine Learning (ML), is a disruptive technology. AI is the technology for big data, specially designed and fitted to extract information from a large amount of data. AI is said to be the next economy, more extensive than the car industry. However, its fast adoption is not without consequences. Like every new technology, it comes with benefits and threats (internal and external). AI itself creates specific categories of threats, such as the "deepfake" and bots’ propaganda used for disinformation campaigns. The utilization of AI is also subject to cyber threats, as malevolent actors can mitigate its intrinsic learning abilities.

The European Union's situation on the world stage is behind other competitors. However, European leaders acknowledge the importance of having an ambitious strategy to reach AI global competitors and ensure AI sovereignty and thus citizen protection.
But are the measures efficient enough to protect citizens, and is this the right path after all?
