The rapid technological advancements of the 21st century have revolutionized various aspects of life, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerging as a transformative force. AI plays a crucial role in domains such as natural language processing, robotics, and predictive analytics, significantly enhancing efficiency and problem-solving capabilities. Its impact extends to cybersecurity, where it offers advanced threat detection, attack prediction, and automated response systems, making it indispensable for safeguarding digital assets. However, the deployment of such powerful technologies raises critical ethical challenges, including fairness, transparency, and accountability. This paper explores the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, highlighting its potential, ethical issues, and strategies to address these challenges. It provides actionable recommendations for responsible AI deployment, ensuring its alignment with cybersecurity principles and ethical standards.
