Are AI labs ignoring cybersecurity experts?

Visit Security Intelligence podcast page to get more security content → https://ibm.biz/~UfIWYEqFs Last week, some of the biggest names in AI coalesced around the need to pace development and strengthen security measures. Problem is, many of the biggest names in cybersecurity feel like they haven’t been invited to that conversation. On episode 52 of Security Intelligence, Jeff Crume, Nikki Robinson and Omari Jones join hosts Matt Kosinski and Patrick Austin to talk about the rising tensions between frontier labs and cybersecurity pros. The former seem to be approaching AI safety as primarily an issue of alignment, while the latter thinks a few good old-fashioned security controls could go a long, long way. Then: Just as the frontier labs are locking their models down, their open-weight counterparts are letting people pull off sophisticated hacks—like hijacking TikTok users’ cameras—with relative ease. Should open models play a bigger role in our security conversations? Finally, CISA and the FBI are sick and tired of all the spin, and their latest advisory calls on breach victims to be much more transparent about incidents. We explore what good crisis communications look like and how we get more organizations on board.

AI Maker Residence at KOKO

The third AI workshop taught by our legendary teacher, Nick Sarafa. In one of the last events we did an asset manager raised an additional £25M on their fund within a space of 9 months. This is a full-day hands-on training workshop for purposeful co-creation with AI using Claude Code. Imagine having access to hundreds of billions of dollars of computing power and knowing exactly how to make it work for you through the power of super intelligence. One person did.
