By definition that needs a command and control server, the ability to execute tasks on demand and regular pings to the C2.

Certs can be revoked. Updates can be rolled back. We have had the backdoor in xz already. You seem to underestimate the modern security stack and OpenAI and Anthropic are _not_ good examples.
The asymmetry in red/blue scenarios will be transient in nature. You won't have cost of developing exploits fall without the cost of securing the systems also falling.

I am not sure if you are agreeing or disagreeing, but I am saying just in case, that Claude can be remotely controlled from the cloud on any machine it is installed and set running, and can be commanded remotely.
- blackmesaind 15d agoWhy does it need a C2? P2P botnets exist, and are made even more viable by AI's ability to update their own attacks / targets / goals. No central node needed. I agree that blue will eventually be made cheaper / faster with AI integration, but diffusion of those techniques inside larger organizations will always be a lot slower than diffusion of those techniques for individual attackers / rogue agents / APTs. Larger ships are slower to turn.
