AI without security measures is a potential disaster, Protect AI CEO Ian Swanson explains why

Irreverent Labs Season 1 Episode 57

Artificial intelligence can optimize our work and social lives, but without security measures, it can potentially destroy both. Joining Adario Strange is Ian Swanson, the founder and CEO of Protect AI, a company devoted to helping major companies and individuals alike guard against malicious AI models and other nefarious exploits attempting to leverage AI against its users. After testifying in front of the U.S. Homeland Security committee on AI last year, Swanson and his startup raised an additional $60 million, valuing the company at $400 million.  

The two also dig deep into all the major AI stories moving the business world including the OpenAI executive exodus, how Elon Musk’s new role with the White House might impact AI policy, the growing effects of AI in education, why nuclear power is now a pillar of the AI space, and what they think actor Ben Affleck knows about AI after going viral for his his take on the future of Hollywood.
