When AI Moves Beyond Human Oversight: The Cybersecurity Risks Of Self-Sustaining Systems
CSO Online, Friday, April 18th, 2025
What happens when AI cybersecurity systems start to rewrite themselves as they adapt over time? Keeping an eye on what they're doing will be mission-critical.
Artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool executing predefined commands, it is increasingly capable of modifying itself, rewriting its own parameters, and evolving based on real-time feedback. This self-sustaining capability, sometimes referred to as autopoiesis, allows AI systems to adapt dynamically to their environments, making them more efficient but also far less predictable.
