The AI Security Podcast

People kept asking us about the recent AI laws in California and why some were passed but one was vetoed, so we decided we'd finally better do a podcast episode on it! Disclaimers: we're not lawyers (this will be immediately obvious) but I hope this is enlightening to other AI/tech folk. We certainly loved researching this one, and we encourage everyone who's interested to join the discussion!In this episode we shout out Civ.ai, a non-profit we met at Berkeley when we were in the US. They create demos to show policymakers just how impactful and risky AI can be, so please do get in touch with them if you're interested! https://civai.org/

In this bonus episode we're still with Miranda and we're talking about some of the trends we're seeing around LLMs (language models) being used by adversaries to augment attacks. This could be another episode, but we have a bite sized discussion for you here!

Join the fascinating journey of a cybersecurity analyst turned AI researcher as they share personal anecdotes from their education and career. The conversation dives into the complex relationship between AI security and cybersecurity, debating whether they are intertwined. Listeners gain insights into the practical challenges and ethical dilemmas in managing AI vulnerabilities. With a focus on community and continuous learning, this engaging discussion empowers newcomers and highlights diverse career pathways in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

When we were in the US we rode a Waymo.. and now we chat about it here! We definitely want to chat about job displacement in another episode, but for now - here is our excuse to tax deduct the Waymo ride!

We're finally back after a bit of a break (travel is tiring). Over the last couple of weeks we attended and spoke at BSides Singapore and BSides Canberra! In this episode we cover the research discussed in our talks and the highlights of BSides in general (you know we're massive BSides fans).  

We're exhausted but we're still here! And to our knowledge we have not been hacked... in this episode we reflect on our AI and cyber security conversations from BSides Las Vegas, the AI Security Forum, DEF CON 32 and our week in the Bay Area. We also want to shout out these organisations:Far Labs for hosting us: https://far.ai/labs/CivAI, this awesome new company we met who are creating AI demos: https://far.ai/labs/Dreadnode for their awesome LLM red teaming comp at the AI Village: https://www.dreadnode.io/Rob Miles for his AI safety youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/RobertMilesAI

Are you excited to attend hacker summer camp (BSides LV, Black Hat and/or DEF CON) in 2024? So are we!! Harriet shares some tips and tricks based on her experience last year. If you'll be in Vegas this year and see myself and Tania please say hi!Hackertracker: https://hackertracker.app/conferences/HSCPARTIES2024/schedule/

In this episode Tania is in New Zealand and I am in France, but that hasn't stopped us! We dive deeper into defining Artificial Intelligence Security, how it is different to AI safety and cyber security and our reflections on its past, present and future. Listen for a 0-50 on AI security.Mileva Security Labs: https://milevalabs.com/AI Safety Aus and NZ: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1099249420923957/Google Trends: https://trends.google.com/trends/Intriguing Properties of Neural Networks: https://arxiv.org/abs/1312.6199

Welcome to the first episode of the podcast. It's only up from here. Tania has been roped into presenting this with me so not only do you get to hear about us and why we care about AI security, but we also explain what it is and why YOU should care about AI security. Mileva Security Labs: https://milevalabs.com/Psyber: https://psyber.com.au/HarrietHacks: https://www.harriethacks.com/
