Initially skeptical about AI's impact on cybersecurity due to past disappointments with overhyped technologies, the author’s perspective shifted after witnessing AI’s practical applications in Tines, a workflow automation platform. Although early AI security tools often failed to deliver in real-world scenarios, advancements in large language models since 2022 have demonstrated tangible benefits, such as automating complex tasks like converting timestamps. The author emphasizes the importance of AI tools in enhancing productivity and reducing barriers, while maintaining human oversight for reliability and security. Tines' AI features, designed to improve workflow creation and monitoring, have shown promise in increasing efficiency and accessibility for users. Despite the optimism, the author advises a cautious and gradual integration of AI in areas with minimal risk, advocating for a trust-building approach that allows for controlled interaction with AI to ensure privacy and security.
