Solved Should Organizations Block AI Browsers? Security Leaders Discuss

Recent research from Gartner encourages organizations to block agentic browsers (or AI browsers). While these browsers could transform user interaction with websites, they could also introduce considerable cybersecurity risks. Therefore, the report asserts that “CISOs must block all AI browsers in the foreseeable future to minimize risk exposure.

technically there is no AI in Vivaldi browser but in vivaldi:flags there is about
6 entries for Gemini and 15 other entries relating to AI
all of which i have set to disabled.

but i can see corporations/organisations putting a block on AI within the browser
as they would have no control how anyone would be using AI, its out of their control.

just my thoughts
best of luck Steve ..

Normally I always agree with you but on this one I highly disagree but what a good solution is I've no idea.

You might just as well say Cars or Guns kill people. It's not the technology but on how it's used.

One aspect is that there's no reason why an intelligent crook can't use A.I to devise better scamming or criminal schemes or politicians to devise election winning strategies,

And what about this scenario for all you Lawyers out there. Imagine this scenario :

An Autonomous vehicle which is in the path of an inevitable accident -- not of its own fault -- has to make the choice of taking action that if doing nothing would cause the death of 14 people but it could take action and cause the death of just 1.

So technically it could be guilty of murder if it took the 2nd choice but no action if it just "let nature take its course" and the accident caused the death of more people.

And that's to say nothing say had the 1 person been a potential Mozart, Steve Hawkins or Einstein while the other 14 could have been people who could have been on social security for most of their lives yielding little to society.

I know this is a technical not a political forum but A.I is such an issue that you can't divorce the two.

With even current speed of A..I the autonomous vehicle could have got within microseconds the I.D of the driver in the car where 1 person only would have been killed and could determine that saving that driver was more beneficial than saving the other 14.

A.I has huge risks but it's not going away so get over it and we need HUMANS of sophisticated enough calibre to work out how to use and control this stuff properly.

Good Luck with that one given our current set of world leaders who still bask in C19 Gunboat diplomacy and Victorian era economics.

Cheers
