AI tools can find bugs and optimize code, but companies are hesitant to use them on sensitive data. The speaker received an oddly phrased email that looked AI-generated and warns that without proper data protections, sending financial information to AI APIs creates real security risks.
One day I received an email from someone I think was from Spain. He tried to wrote in Portuguese it was clear that he is using AI because they may start with I hope this message finds you well. No one in Brazil use it, so you need to be careful when you use AI. And I think the potential of AI nowadays is to combine it with the programming, especially Python. But what I see in the companies is they worry about the data is a fair point. If you are going to work with API from Open in AI in finance, you're going to put your finest data in there. So what's going on with your data? Can you guarantee it's secure? Usually I'm using AI every day in my job just to try to help me to find some errors, optimize some code. But I think we didn't get the fully potential of AI because of this limitation of data security.
