Binance co-founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ), in his first public interview since Binance suffered an exploit on October 29, stated that AI is accelerating cyberattacks and called on the crypto industry to form a security alliance to share experiences, best practices, and accelerate the freezing of stolen funds. He believes that security threats have transcended individual companies, impacting the broader crypto industry and even the global financial system, while emphasizing that companies should invest in AI defenses, security personnel, and partnerships with AI security providers. Previously, Binance revealed that hackers infiltrated an employee's computer using a fake job interview and leveraged internal AI tools to launch the attack.
