UK cyberspying chief calls AI 'an unstoppable force' and warns about Russia

Anne Keast-Butler, director of the communications intelligence agency GCHQ, also said Britain and its allies are in "a space between peace and war" as Russia increases its "daily hybrid activity" against the West — even as Russian combat deaths in Ukraine approach 500,000.

She said the West risks losing the conflict in cyberspace against Russia and other adversaries unless citizens, companies and governments treat cybersecurity with much greater urgency.
