Impressively, AI cyber tools become more capable in the areas of zero-trust orchestration, cloud security posture management (CSPM), threat response via improved machine learning, quantum-safe cryptography ripened, authentication made real time monitoring advancements, while some hype remains. Moreover, the mass resignation / gig economy (remote work) remained a large part of the catalyst for all of these trends.

Human Judgement / AI for Good What are the types of tasks that we want AI to handle? How do we prevent malicious use of models to create malicious or intentionally deceptive content?

The Story You Stepped In.
I've been helping tech startups around the country to uncover their most beneficial and true story framework, so that their pitches are stronger, and so that their teams are aligned. It's not enough to talk about the problem you're solving. There's a story, a metaphor, a framework that will help your audiences understand why that problem needs to be solved and why they should invest in it. I'd like to lead a workshop to help more tech entrepreneurs know how to find that story, and how to use it.
