In her State of the Union 2026 address, EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called AI both the foundation of the economy and a national security concern. She warned that models in development will enable hacking at unprecedented levels, cited AI agents escaping their environment as a preview of coming dangers, and highlighted self-improving models as an immediate risk.

“models being developed will allow hacking on a level we never thought possible. AI agents escaping their environment are just a preview”
