Most conversations about AI focus on one question:

**Will AI replace jobs?**

Alex Stamos thinks that's only part of the story.

In this episode of the TPRM Podcast, Threats, Pitfalls & Risk Myths, Nate Lee sits down with Alex Stamos, Chief Product Officer at Corridor, former Chief Security Officer at Facebook, former CISO of Yahoo, and founding director of the Stanford Internet Observatory.

The conversation explores how AI is fundamentally changing software development, cybersecurity, and the future of work.

As autonomous coding agents become more capable, organizations are entering a world where software can be written, reviewed, and deployed at unprecedented speed. That creates enormous opportunities, but it also introduces entirely new security challenges that many organizations are unprepared for.

Nate and Alex discuss how AI is reshaping application security, why security teams can no longer rely on saying "no," and how organizations should rethink software development, vulnerability management, and business risk in an AI-first world.

The conversation also explores:

• Why AI will permanently change software engineering
• How autonomous coding agents are transforming development
• The future of application security and vulnerability discovery
• Why security leaders must become business enablers
• The growing gap between AI adoption and governance
• Career advice for professionals navigating rapid technological change
• The societal impact of AI and what happens if organizations move faster than people can adapt
• Why resilience, not prevention, will define the next generation of cybersecurity

Alex also shares lessons from leading security at Facebook, Yahoo, SentinelOne, and Stanford, along with practical advice for CISOs, engineers, founders, and technology leaders preparing for an AI-driven future.

Whether you're leading security, building software, managing risk, or simply trying to understand how AI is changing work, this conversation offers thoughtful insights into where technology is headed and what leaders should do next.
