The CEO of the largest bank in the US believes that AI poses a bigger threat to American society than the potential for widespread job losses.
In a new Axios interview, Jamie Dimon says that nation-state actors and hackers using AI to amplify and scale attacks is the top risk for both corporations and the government.
“I mean, our biggest risk here is cyber. And for America and even these wars, there’s a cyber component to this. And I think these agents make cyber far worse. And so that might be the biggest one.”
Dimon also talks about Anthropic’s most powerful AI model yet, Mythos, which has recently grabbed headlines following a data leak. According to Dimon, Mythos is designed to defend, but the powerful AI model could be used to shut down operations and steal sensitive data.
“Well, remember, it was built to defend. It’s a weapon that could be used to attack… I’ve written about it for years that cyber is huge, and it’s getting worse every single year. Now, of course, America’s got unbelievable cyber capabilities too. So anything that closes down part of America, you can assume will close down part of adversaries, if not more.”
While cyber threats are at the top of the list, Dimon also says the rapid adoption of AI could spark a massive wave of job displacement.
In a recent interview at the Hill and Valley Forum, Dimon said that corporations and governments must collaborate and create a framework to address the incoming wave of AI job disruption.
