HAIC talk: Artificial Evil — with Mikko Hyppönen
March 31 @ 16:00 - 17:30
Lecture description: All new technical innovations come with both advantages and disadvantages; we cannot simply select the benefits without also encountering the challenges. The defense against cyber attacks is an ongoing, relentless effort. In the near future, we are likely to witness fully automated malware campaigns powered by machine learning or generative AI. Consequently, it may become evident that the only effective countermeasure to a bad AI is a good AI.
