The artificial intelligence program built by the Chinese regime is based on sensitive data stolen over the years.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Wray warned of the cybersecurity threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party\u2019s (CCP) use of technological advances against the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Wray claimed that artificial intelligence was in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-china\">China<\/a> It is \u201cbuilt on top of the massive troves of intellectual property\u201d he is not bound by the same set laws as in the United States or other democracies.<\/p>\n<p>He suggested that the CCP could make use of artificial intelligence to enhance its hacking program and intellectual property theft. This is a form of repression that does not occur only in mainland China. \u201cincreasingly is a product that they export around the world\u201d if left unchecked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s something we\u2019re deeply concerned about, and I think everyone here should be deeply concerned about,\u201d Wray spoke at the forum.<\/p>\n<p>Officials from the United States have voiced similar concerns for years.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2021, for instance, U.S. counterintelligence officials issued warnings about China\u2019s ambitions in artificial intelligence as part of a renewed effort to inform business executives, academics, and local and state government officials about the risks of accepting Chinese investment or expertise in key industries.<\/p>\n<p>Wray <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/china-is-worlds-largest-hacking-power-seeks-global-domination-of-technology-sectors-fbi-director-wray_4505780.html\">previously emphasized<\/a> the CCP\u2019s use of coercive laws to effectively force technology transfers from U.S. businesses operating in China to the state.<\/p>\n<h2>Surveillance Awareness in the USA: US Companies<\/h2>\n<p>In an apparent reference to China\u2019s national intelligence laws, which allow the regime to demand the data of any company in the name of security, Wray said that many U.S. companies simply accept that they\u2019ll be spied on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChina\u2019s economy also gives it leverage and tools, sway over companies. \u2026 For many U.S. and foreign companies doing business in China, or looking to, the cost effectively amounts to a blanket consent to state surveillance in the name of security, at best,\u201d Wray spoke at a Boston College cybersecurity talk on June 1, 2022.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt worst, they\u2019ve got to accept the risk that their sensitive information may be co-opted to serve Beijing\u2019s geopolitical goals,\u201d He stated.<\/p>\n<p>Wray also spoke out about how the CCP used China&#8217;s state-mandated tax system to spy on Chinese companies. He said that Chinese laws require businesses to make use of a small suite of software options for tax purposes, at least one of which was used by the CCP to implant malware into companies\u2019 systems to allow covert government access to the company\u2019s data.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from direct government intervention, Wray said that China, along with Iran and Russia, is hiring hackers as if they were cyber mercenaries, and providing them with state resources to conduct attacks on the United States on China\u2019s behalf.<\/p>\n<p>He said that such actors often target defense and industrial sectors to cause havoc or deny access, steal secrets, or cause havoc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Chinese government is methodical, hacking in support of long-term economic goals,\u201d He stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve got a bigger hacking program than all other major nations combined. They\u2019ve stolen more American personal and corporate data than all nations combined. And they\u2019re showing no sign of tempering their ambition and aggression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>This report was contributed by Andrew Thornebrooke, The Associated Press and The Associated Press.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to Christopher Wray, FBI Director Christopher Wray, China has the world&#8217;s largest hacking program.
