Practical AI: Machine Learning, Data Science, LLM

In this episode of the Practical AI podcast, cybersecurity experts Gregory Richardson and Ismael Valenzuela from BlackBerry delve into the changing world of cybersecurity in the AI era. They point out that while AI presents exciting opportunities for both cyber attackers and defenders—such as more sophisticated phishing schemes and enhanced threat detection—it's essential to cut through the hype and focus on real-world applications. They stress the need for a comprehensive security strategy that blends human expertise with AI tools, like predictive machine learning, for better classification and threat forecasting. Instead of relying solely on large language models for tasks that humans can handle more effectively, the conversation underscores the importance of a balanced approach. This means harnessing the advantages of AI while also addressing its risks and the ethical concerns that come with its growing influence.
