AI is speeding up the quantum threat to crypto, security experts warn

Researchers and builders believe that artificial intelligence may be accelerating the quantum timeline and forcing a broader rethink of how digital security works. What to know : AI is accelerating the development of quantum computing and forcing the crypto industry to prepare for a future where today’s encryption systems, including those securing blockchains and the broader internet, may no longer be reliable. Security researchers say the combination of AI and quantum computing is creating a new cybersecurity arms race, where crypto networks and internet infrastructure will need to evolve continuously to defend against rapidly advancing threats.(Coindesk)
