Recently, the synergy between artificial intelligence (AI) and security has gained increasing prominence and significance. This evolution naturally arises from the need to enhance security with greater efficiency. Among the many areas of security benefiting from AI's integration, cryptography stands as a notable field. We are already witnessing the application of AI techniques to address several problems in cryptography, such as enhancing defenses against implementation attacks and hardware Trojans, and investigating attacks on Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs). Beyond AI's contributions to cryptography, it is also possible to identify the use of cryptography to solve security and privacy issues in AI systems as an emerging and pivotal subject. The mounting frequency of AI system attacks urges us to explore potential research avenues involving cryptographic strategies to counteract these threats. Our objective is to convene experts from both academic and industrial backgrounds, each contributing to diverse facets of cryptography and AI, to facilitate knowledge exchange and foster collaborative efforts. Of particular interest is the exploration of the transferability of techniques across different cryptographic applications and the strengthening of AI security mechanisms. Furthermore, we will delve into recent developments, including those stemming from previous AICrypt events, to provide insights into the evolving landscape of this field.
