In this interview we explore the new and sometimes strange world of redteaming AI. I have SO many questions, like what is AI safety?

We'll discuss her presence at Black Hat, where she delivered two days of training and participated on an AI safety panel.

We'll also discuss the process of pentesting an AI. Will pentesters just have giant cheatsheets or text files full of adversarial prompts? How can we automate this? Will an AI generate adversarial prompts you can use against another AI? And finally, what do we do with the results?
