Do you think AI will make cybersecurity products/services cheaper over the next 5-10 years?

Business Security Questions & Discussion

A lot of security cost historically came from manpower + time. Analysts, SOC staffing, alert triage, monitoring, billable hours etc.

If AI meaningfully reduces the amount of human labor needed, does that eventually push prices down? Or do you think companies will just keep prices high and use AI to increase margins instead? Has anyone had a vendor lower prices when shown a competing AI startup solution that costs less?
