  "account": "Artificial Intelligence has transformed incident response, shifting the focus from human response to AI-assisted tools. Traditional tabletop exercises, which primarily tested human capabilities, are now insufficient as AI becomes an integral part of the process. Teams must adapt their tabletop exercises to include new failure scenarios related to AI systems, ensuring they can identify and address AI-related issues during live incidents. This involves testing AI's accuracy, availability, and the reliance on manual skills that may atrophy over time. By incorporating these AI-specific challenges, tabletop exercises will better reflect the realities of modern incident response, preparing teams for potential pitfalls that may arise from their new reliance on AI.",
