Description

Hutch, an expert in AI and cybersecurity, discusses his early interest in using AI for algorithmic trading and automating social engineering attacks with chatbots. He highlights two main cyber risks of advanced AI - the ability to manipulate people and autonomously execute attacks. Hutch and Chris explore issues like commercialization of AI versus proprietary chatbots, and tech companies' ethical duties to reduce AI risks through testing and responsible development. They delve into potential weaponization of AI in lethal autonomous weapons and "flash wars", as well as risks from intelligent humanoids. The need for global AI partnerships is discussed, but challenged by current geopolitics. Private sector researchers and companies have a key role in addressing AI safety and risks. However, adversaries likely have an edge in exploiting AI vulnerabilities, underscoring the importance of innovative defense strategies.
