Beyond the Chatbot: Why NIST is Rewriting the Rules for Autonomous AI
The chatbot era has ended. For two years, we’ve interacted with digital assistants that summarize emails and suggest recipes, but the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) now draws a definitive line between machines that talk and machines that act. Their newly released Request for Information (RFI) signals a fundamental paradigm shift in how..…

NIST’s AI guidance pushes cybersecurity boundaries
Tags: access, ai, ciso, control, cybersecurity, data, defense, exploit, framework, intelligence, nist, risk, risk-assessment, software, threatThe limits of ‘AI is just software’: NIST’s instinct to frame AI as an extension of traditional software allows organizations to reuse familiar concepts, risk assessment, access control, logging, defense in depth, rather than starting from zero. Workshop participants repeatedly emphasized that many controls do transfer, at least in principle.But some experts argue that the…
