Episode Notes
In this captivating episode as part of our RSA Conference Coverage Chats on the Road series, Justin Hutchens, a seasoned expert in information security and AI, and hosts Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli discuss the potential benefits and risks of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) into various aspects of our lives. Justin shares his journey in AI, from attempting to crack financial markets to exploring its potential in social engineering.
Hutchens will be delivering a talk at RSA about the weaponization of large language models for fully autonomous social engineering systems and potential mitigation strategies. He will also lead a “birds of a feather” session on the ethics surrounding AI, touching on topics such as societal impacts, mental health, and job displacement.
The podcast delves into the perception and limitations of AI, emphasizing that it should be seen as a tool rather than a solution. Hutchens highlights the risks of integrating AI into business processes and shares his thoughts on the importance of human intervention to ensure the accuracy and safety of AI-generated outputs. He also mentions the possible advantages of using AI in security operations and its challenges in operational decision-making.
The conversation underscores the need for ongoing discussions covering the importance of ethics in AI, the rapid acceleration of AI development, its potential societal impacts, and understanding the necessity of balancing business objectives with societal concerns. Join this enlightening conversation as the trio discuss the power and responsibility that come with using AI and explore ways to mitigate the risks associated with integrating AI into organizations’ workflows.
