From Skynet to SecureNet - trust, identity, and AI. with John Scott
In a world where artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries and daily life, concerns about cybersecurity are rapidly evolving. This engaging talk explores the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, aimed at a technically competent but not AI specific audience curious about the risks and opportunities of this technology. We’ll take a holistic view of how AI impacts cybersecurity, and then look at how AI impacts three key areas of modern life - trust, identity, and education. By the end of the session, attendees will have a clearer understanding of the risks AI poses, the innovations it enables, and how society can adapt to harness its potential securely—transitioning from a dystopian *Skynet* to a more secure digital future with *SecureNet*.
