Inria Conference center
This talk is open to a non-specialist audience
Cybersecurity in the age of LLMs
The capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasing at an astonishing pace in areas such as programming or mathematics. It is thus plausible that these models will soon have a large impact on cybersecurity. In this talk, I will discuss what current LLMs can or cannot (yet?) do in the cybersecurity space, and how we may need to rethink defenses as a consequence.
