  AI has provided us with the ability to automate tasks, extract information
from vast amounts of data, and synthesize media that is nearly
indistinguishable from the real thing. However, positive tools can also be used
for negative purposes. In particular, cyber adversaries can use AI (such as
machine learning) to enhance their attacks and expand their campaigns.
  Although offensive AI has been discussed in the past, there is a need to
analyze and understand the threat in the context of organizations. For example,
how does an AI-capable adversary impact the cyber kill chain? Does AI benefit
the attacker more than the defender? What are the most significant AI threats
facing organizations today and what will be their impact on the future?
  In this survey, we explore the threat of offensive AI on organizations.
First, we present the background and discuss how AI changes the adversary's
methods, strategies, goals, and overall attack model. Then, through a
literature review, we identify 33 offensive AI capabilities which adversaries
can use to enhance their attacks. Finally, through a user study spanning
industry and academia, we rank the AI threats and provide insights on the
adversaries.
