Threats and Opportunities of Using Artificial Intelligence from a Cybersecurity Perspective

The article analyses the potential threats and opportunities associated with the use of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity. The aim is to identify the key risks arising from the proliferation of advanced technologies, especially concerning their misuse in cyberattacks, hybrid operations, and autonomous decision-making processes. At the same time, it examines the positive potential of artificial intelligence in threat detection, big data analysis, and the strengthening of active defence in cyberspace. The article employs a combination of analytical and comparative approaches, drawing upon current scientific studies, technical reports, and strategic documents. The findings indicate the need for a balanced approach that considers technological, ethical, legislative, and geopolitical dimensions. The article contributes to the ongoing discussion on the responsible integration of artificial intelligence into cybersecurity policies and practices.
