Attackers need to understand what they are attacking, how to attack it, and how to turn access into whatever they are after. AI is shrinking that learning curve. It helps attackers map infrastructure, find flaws faster, and produce more convincing lures to use against users. Defenders have the opposite problem. It is not "we don't know what to do."
