In this last episode, Jeff O’Shaughnessy talks with cybersecurity expert Eric O'Neill who shares his insights on the current state of cybersecurity and why passwords are no longer a reliable form of protection. He emphasizes the importance of two-factor authentication and using authenticator apps to add an extra layer of security. Eric also discusses the principle of displacement, where securing one area can displace threats to another, and how this applies to cybersecurity. He shares examples of how simple security measures can prevent major breaches, and encourages individuals and businesses to take proactive steps to protect themselves.

In this episode, Jeff O’Shaughnessy speaks with former FBI operative and cybersecurity expert Eric O'Neill who shares the shocking truth about how AI-powered attacks and deepfakes are being used to manipulate elections and threaten democracy. HE also emphasizes the importance of being proactive in cybersecurity, rather than waiting for an attack to happen. With the rise of deepfakes and AI-generated content, Eric stresses the need for individuals and businesses to be vigilant and to develop a mindset of skepticism when interacting online.

In this episode, Jeff O’Shaughnessy interviews former FBI operative and cybersecurity expert Eric O'Neill who reveals the shocking truth about nation-state affiliated cyber crime and its impact on critical infrastructure. He exposes how foreign threat actors are using probe attacks to infiltrate and map our power grid, preparing for a future war that could bring catastrophic consequences. Eric warns that we're in a "lot of trouble" and that a critical infrastructure attack is not only plausible but possible.

In a continuation of a conversation with Eric O'Neill, former FBI operative and cybersecurity expert, Jeff O’Shaughnessy takes a deeper dive into the story of Robert Hanssen, the first-ever cyber spy. Eric shares how Hanssen's hacking skills and adaptability allowed him to breach FBI systems and networks for decades, and how he revolutionized espionage by using technology to drop data to foreign powers.

In a thrilling episode of HSB's New Ways of Thinking Podcast, Jeff O’Shaughnessy talks with Eric O'Neill, a legendary former FBI operative turned cybersecurity expert, shares his hair-raising story of catching notorious spy Robert Hanssen. From his early days as an FBI ghost to his daring undercover mission, Eric recounts the twists and turns that led to Hanssen's capture.

In the last episode focused on AI, Jeff O'Shaughnessy and Naveen Agarwal explores the intersection of energy efficiency and AI, highlighting the high energy costs of powering AI systems like GPT. He discusses the development of fusion energy as a potential solution, but notes that this technology is still in its infancy. Agarwal also speaks about the risks that AI poses to the insurance industry, including new exposures and liabilities related to AI decision-making. Ultimately, he emphasizes the need for humans to adapt and build alongside AI in order to succeed.

During this episode of New Ways of Thinking, Naveen Agarwal discusses with Jeff O’Shaughnessy the significant challenges and risks associated with Generative AI, particularly in the areas of deep fakes, identity, and privacy. He notes that while responsible players in the industry are working to address these issues, the threat of malicious actors using AI to compromise identities and access sensitive information remains a major concern.  Agarwal also highlights the potential benefits of Generative AI in detecting fraud and improving emergency response times in industries such as insurance and healthcare.

In the next episode, Jeff O'Shaughnessy and Naveen Agarwal discuss the potential of General Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) to enable new possibilities and opportunities, rather than simply automating existing tasks. Agarwal believes that Gen AI will create new use cases and empower humans to achieve more, citing examples in healthcare and insurance. However, he also acknowledges the challenges that come with AI, such as bias and hallucination, and emphasizes the need for ongoing monitoring and testing to ensure the accuracy and fairness of AI models.

In this episode, Jeff O'Shaughnessy and Naveen Agarwal discusses the impact of General Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) on various business cases, highlighting three key areas where it has made significant inroads: knowledge management, content generation, and call center operations. He provides examples of industries and companies that have successfully implemented Gen AI, such as insurance carriers using it for underwriting and claims processing. Agarwal also addresses concerns about AI replacing human jobs, emphasizing the importance of focusing on automating tasks rather than displacing jobs. He argues that Gen AI will continue to evolve and automate tasks, but ultimately enhance human capabilities rather than replace them.
