Well, maybe not useful to you. But to hackers, which at the government level are military, it can be very useful. They can use AI to exploit a publically disclosed exploit faster than people can patch thier systems. That can give one country access to the sensitive data of a different government. And of course, hacking utilities and infrastructure can give one country a lot of power over another. Why do you think a Russia is working to enable itself to isolate it's internet from the rest of the world. Can't hack what you can't connect to. And of course, it doesn't even have to matter if it is useful, as long as the governments of the world think they can't let other governments get ahead of them.
