The White House has announced a new contest to spur the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that can be used to secure government systems from hacks.
The contest, which is called the “AI for Cybersecurity Grand Challenge,” is being run by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
The AI for Cybersecurity Grand Challenge will award up to $20 million in prizes to teams that develop AI systems that can find and fix security vulnerabilities in government systems.
The AI for Cybersecurity Grand Challenge is a significant investment by the White House in the use of AI to secure government systems. The contest is a sign of the growing importance of AI in cybersecurity, and it is likely to spur the development of new and innovative AI technologies that can help to protect government systems from attack.
The White House is committed to making government systems more secure from attack. The AI for Cybersecurity Grand Challenge and other initiatives are part of a comprehensive effort to improve the cybersecurity posture of the federal government.
