CISA and international partners issued December 3 guidance on safely using AI in operational technology (OT), giving critical infrastructure operators a concrete framework for adoption. The guidance covers machine learning, large language models (LLMs), and AI agents, while warning about data security and legacy OT integration risks. It matters because OT systems support vital public services, so AI misconfiguration or misuse could affect operational safety and reliability.
