The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in cryptography and security is a rapidly growing field. In security, AI is used to detect potential threats and weaknesses within a system by identifying "safe" versus "malicious" behaviors. AI security tools are able to process large amounts of data and create activity profiles that can reveal malicious behavior, mimicking the threat-detection capability of human analysts. AI is also used to automate tasks, prioritize alerts, predict breach risks, and respond to security incidents. In cryptography, AI is used to develop and improve existing encryption algorithms. However, the use of AI in cybersecurity is not without its challenges. As AI becomes more widely used in the cybersecurity field, companies need to take precautions to protect themselves from potential adverse effects. Hackers can try to exploit security algorithms by targeting the AI system itself. The use of AI in cybersecurity creates a dilemma known as the "AI/cybersecurity conundrum," where AI can be used for both good and bad purposes
