Mike Sexton, Senior Policy Advisor for Cyber and AI at Third Way, joins this episode of AI, Government, and the Future by Alan Pentz to explore the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, and policy.

As the main editor, he contributed to "Cyber War & Cyber Peace" (I.B. Tauris, 2022), a collection of insightful essays on cyber conflicts in the Middle East.
