True, but security systems don't really require original thinking. They're all variations on an encryption theme. Got a faster more powerful system with better cracking algorithms, you can probably break it by brute force. Besides that, just about all systems have some flaw in the code that can be exploited, or the original designer snuck in a back door on purpose. So there's a better than even chance that the proliferation of AI computing will lead to more systems currently considered "secure" being broken. Based on what I've read so far, particularly at risk are Block Chain Crypto Currency Wallets. If any of the major cryptocurrency systems are broken, that whole sector could be at risk. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but a few crypto Billionaires like the Winklevoss Twins could take a beating. 😁
