AI isn't a threat to panic about but a tool humans must train and govern ethically. The real work is the same as cybersecurity: deciding what data to use, how to train people to use it, and ensuring it serves human goals.
And, you know, people talk about AI and what's the challenge and what are we facing and what do we do? Like, it's always in that sort of paranoid security context. It's, oh my God, what do we do about AI? And my answer is always double down on humanity. If you wanna know where the best breaks are, just like we talked about with security awareness, we're right back to that same story with AI. AI has to be trained. It has to be trained by humans. Humans have to deploy it, deploy it ethically, and deploy it with human considerations and factors in mind. Human goals are ultimately what it's there to achieve. AI is not there to achieve its own goals. Why do we have it? It's a tool to serve us. Okay, who is us? Us is the humans. Let's think this through from the human perspective. What training is required of us and of the tool? What training is required to drive usage of the tool? What training is required to enhance the tool? What data do we and don't we feed it? All of these are human conversations and human questions. And in some sense, they're really no different than the cybersecurity human conversations we've been having for years and years and years.
