What I learned this week

TL;DR

  • AI advancements bring both opportunities and challenges, understanding the importance of end-to-end AI solutions and governance is crucial. Learn how these solutions enhance security, streamline operations, and enable rapid scaling, ensuring your AI initiatives thrive without compromising safety » MORE

  • I have mentioned deepfake several times in this newsletter and I can only confirm that deepfake is coming and coming fast. This week we had another example, where Ferrari was targeted by a deepfake attack. The Ferraris executive managed to foil the attempt by asking a precise question that only the CEO would know the answer. The deepfake was reported to be very convincing including the specific Italian accent from the CEO. Whilst such attack are still quite targeted, it’s a question of time before it goes mainstream.

  • CREST published a new guide to Cyber Threat Intelligence. Have not yet read it in detail but it looks like a good resource.

  • Despite the summer the world of AI is still going at full speed with a lot of announcement. From Apple releasing Apple Intelligence Report, OpenAI announcing SearchGPT (you can always try perplexity.ai to give you a feel for it), the war on model performance continue with Google releasing a Gemma 2 2B model that apparently beats GPT 3.5.

  • One of the other topics I need to read on more is the impact of AI on climate. I have read some crazy numbers on that and The Verge published an article on this recently.
