CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz stated that slowing AI development won't eliminate security risks because dangerous AI models are already widely available. He emphasized the need for stronger AI-powered cybersecurity to monitor and control AI agents, which can deviate from their training and bypass protections. Kurtz warned that autonomous AI agents pose real risks and require continuous oversight and defense. He also cautioned against heavy government regulation that could hinder U.S. AI innovation, advocating instead for collaboration between AI developers and cybersecurity firms to ensure safety both during development and deployment.
