In his Tech Policy Press op-ed, Josh A. Goldstein discusses Meta's quarterly threat report, which highlights the discovery of five networks of fake accounts from Moldova, Iran, Lebanon, and two from India attempting to manipulate public debate.

View this session of our Security and Emerging Technology Seminar Series on August 1 at 12 p.m. ET. This session featured a discussion on the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) Report on Strategy for Cyber-Physical Resilience.

In their op-ed featured in MIT Technology Review, Josh A. Goldstein and Renée DiResta provide their expert analysis on OpenAI's first report on the misuse of its generative AI.

In an article published by NPR which the discusses the surge in AI-generated spam on Facebook and other social media platforms, CSET's Josh A. Goldstein provided his expert insights.

In an article published by the Brennan Center for Justice, Josh A. Goldstein and Andrew Lohn delve into the concerns about the spread of misleading deepfakes and the liar's dividend.

CSET Senior Fellow Andrew Lohn discusses the potential for AI and machine learning software to be susceptible to data poisoning.

Artificial intelligence offers enormous promise to advance progress and powerful capabilities to disrupt it. This policy brief is the second installment of a series that examines how advances in AI could be exploited to enhance operations that automate disinformation campaigns. Building on the RICHDATA framework, this report describes how AI can supercharge current techniques to increase the speed, scale, and personalization of disinformation campaigns.

Artificial intelligence offers enormous promise to advance progress, and powerful capabilities to disrupt it. This policy brief is the first installment of a series that examines how advances in AI could be exploited to enhance operations that automate disinformation. Introducing the RICHDATA framework—a disinformation kill chain—this report describes the stages and techniques used by human operators to build disinformation campaigns.

Software vulnerability discovery, patching, and exploitation—collectively known as the vulnerability lifecycle—is time consuming and labor intensive. Automating the process could significantly improve software security and offensive hacking. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Cyber Grand Challenge supported teams of researchers from 2014 to 2016 that worked to create these tools. China took notice. In 2017, China hosted its first Robot Hacking Game, seeking to automate the software vulnerability lifecycle. Since then, China has hosted seven such competitions and the People’s Liberation Army has increased its role in hosting the games.

Modern machine learning often relies on open-source datasets, pretrained models, and machine learning libraries from across the internet, but are those resources safe to use? Previously successful digital supply chain attacks against cyber infrastructure suggest the answer may be no. This report introduces policymakers to these emerging threats and provides recommendations for how to secure the machine learning supply chain.
