AI finds security flaws – who controls the knowledge?
A FAZ commentary uses a PHP vulnerability to question governments’ dependence on private AI companies.
Kira Kramer reports that OpenAI used an AI model to find an attack path through a known PHP vulnerability. The company informed developers and selected government bodies. Her commentary asks what power comes with helping decide who receives this knowledge. [1]
This example highlights a political dimension of generative AI: security research can provide protection while creating dependencies. Kramer warns against basing national security on the goodwill of private technology companies.
