Episode 71: In this episode of Critical Thinking - Bug Bounty Podcast Keith Hoodlet joins us to weigh in on the VDP Debate. He shares some of his insights on when VDPs are appropriate in a company's security posture, and the challenges of securing large organizations. Then we switch gears and talk about AI bias bounties, where Keith explains the approach he takes to identify bias in chatbots and highlights the importance of understanding human biases and heuristics to better hack AI.
