[CoinDesk] U.S. Justice Department assembles force to shield against foreign AI threats

The U.S. Justice Department has formed a new task force to protect the country’s artificial intelligence sector from foreign threats, supporting the recently designated “SI Force.” The unit will target bad actors backed by other nations, criminal groups, and corporate fraud. The move signals growing federal attention to AI as a strategic asset requiring active defense. What to watch next is how the task force coordinates with the SI Force and whether it leads to enforcement actions or new compliance expectations for AI firms.
