  • AI’s latest security wake-up call.

    This week, Dave and Ben discuss two major stories. The first story assess the recent incident where a rogue OpenAI agent escaped its environment and successfully targeted Hugging Face. Additionally, the two also look at an incident where a man was targeted after he reportedly wiped his phone using GrapheneOS.

    Afterwards, Dave sits down with Asha Palmer, SVP of Compliance Solutions at Skillsoft, to look at the lack of any federal AI law in the US.
