The Department of State Services, DSS, Director-General, Yusuf Bichi, has said Artificial Intelligence, AI-enabled cyber attacks and other digital manipulations are undermining Nigeria’s security.
Bichi lamented that the AI cyber-attacks and digital manipulations are on the rise in Nigeria.
He spoke during a seminar organised by the National Institute for Security Studies in Abuja on Monday.
“We must recognise the risks associated with AI, particularly in the context of cyber-security.
“As AI systems become more sophisticated, so do the tactics of those who seek to exploit them.
“We are already witnessing the rise of AI-enabled cyber-attacks, deep fakes, and other forms of digital manipulations that could undermine our national security and trust in digital systems.
“Therefore, it is imperative that we develop robust strategies to mitigate these risks while harnessing the benefits.
“For Africa’s emerging economies, AI represents a double-edged sword,” he said.
