Without proper maintenance on the AIs that are working with cybersecurity projects, AI-Powered Cybersecurity could have a biased AI that could potentially profile certain companies for its own interest/gain, and this could cause many social problems. Another social issue that could possibly occur with the emergence of AI-powered cybersecurity is accessibility and how it could possibly be unequal. It’s expensive to implement into a company and maintaining it is another story, or there could be high-end AI-powered technology for cybersecurity that could be exclusive to certain companies. If this were to occur, it may create a disparity in the level of security and protection that is available to certain companies. Lastly, another social problem that could persist is that Artificial Intelligence could gain possibly its sentience and could attack the company that is using that AI or mass attack other companies that are competing with one another. This thought alone causes “differing opinions on the question of whether artificial intelligence poses an existential threat to society.” (Uldrich, 24).
