ESW #320 - Daniel Miessler, Alex Babin

This is the first interview in a two-part AI special! First up, we talk with Daniel Miessler, who has been following the generative AI trend very closely and is one of the most prolific writers and thought leaders on the topic. It's a massively divisive topic with the most successful product ever launched (ChatGPT). Some folks think it's overhyped, some think it's going to replace all the worst parts of the worst jobs, and others think it could be the beginning of the end for humanity. While other interviews on GenAI get deep into conversations on the future of humanity, we're going to stay closer to home on this one. It seems clear that GenAI will transform the enterprise more quickly than any other technology trend we've seen. We'll discuss what security needs to do to prepare for this shift, and why security teams should begin exploring GenAI themselves as soon as possible. Generative AI is taking the world by storm. Naturally, enterprises are looking for ways to integrate the innovative technology into their techstack, boost productivity of the knowledge workers and overall increase their ROI. The question is, how to do it without compromising data privacy and security standards of the enterprises.
