Meanwhile, hackers can use their own AI to launch cyberattacks. That should create new work and security disciplines for healthcare cyber teams, said Taylor Lehmann, a director of the office of the chief information security officer at Google Cloud.<\/p>\n<p>Lehmann sat down with Healthcare Dive to discuss how the advent of generative AI tools will impact healthcare cybersecurity and what organizations need to do to prepare for an increasingly AI-augmented security workforce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This interview has been edited for clarity and length.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4>HEALTHCARE DIVE: Would you say these generative AI tools are more ripe for attack than any other piece of tech hospitals use? Or is that just another vendor they have to consider when they&#8217;re thinking about cybersecurity?<\/h4>\n<p>Taylor Lehmann, a director of the office of the chief information security officer at Google Cloud<\/p>\n<p>Permission granted by Google Cloud<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>TAYLOR LEHMANN:\u00a0<\/strong>This is where I am concerned about the future. Today we\u2019re talking with AI systems, tomorrow we\u2019re watching AI systems do stuff \u2014 like the agentic push we\u2019re still on the cusp of \u2014 so this answer might change a bit. But number one,\u00a0it\u2019s going to be very hard to detect when AI is wrong and whether that being wrong is due to it being manipulated by a nefarious actor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Detecting wrongness is already a challenge. We\u2019ve been working on this for years.
