FYI dear friends! In case you missed this.

On Thursday, a coalition of more than 100 tech companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft and more, published a letter calling for collective action to strengthen cyber defenses as AI-enabled cyberattacks pose a growing threat.
"Today’s AI advances are already giving defenders new ways to fix weaknesses that have accumulated for years," said the letter, which was published on OpenAI's blog. "If we act decisively, we can use the defenders’ window to make our digital world much more secure."

Industry, government, and AI leaders call for collective action to strengthen cyber defenses and protect the critical infrastructure we all depend on.
