how it is computed

Not part of the attention index

Openness to AI

Exposure to threats

as a target 35 · as a cause 19

Open, little exposedMedia coverage: medium (135 AI articles citing the country in the last 32 days)

Why this value

Exposure to threats = 50% × 35.1 (as a target) + 50% × 18.5 (as a cause) = 26.8

Reported cyber attacks against institutions and foreign disinformation

Social media monitoring, government disinformation, AI surveillance, spyware, internet shutdowns

What we cannot see

We count reported cyber attacks, not all those that happened; there is no worldwide measure of threats made with AI; for surveillance and spyware the sources stop at 2022-2024.
