AI holds enormous promise for cybersecurity given its ability to analyze massive volumes of code, detect vulnerabilities rapidly, and respond faster than any human. But how well is it actually performing in real-world conditions? That question led Andy Zhang, JD ’26, to help design Cybench, a new... tool for testing how advanced AI models perform on high-risk cybersecurity tasks. Cybench is not just addressing important questions, it recently earned national recognition: a first-place award from the Center for AI Safety in its SafeBench competition.
Zhang, who is also pursuing a PhD in computer science and has experience as a software engineer, was the only law student on the @RegLab project team, playing a key role in connecting the project’s technical findings to broader questions of public policy, governance, and responsible AI deployment. https://stanford.io/4d6uniq
