    Could AI be turning cybersecurity into an AI versus AI arms race? In this episode of the Inspiring Tech Leaders podcast, I explore the rapidly changing relationship between artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, following reports that a small team of security researchers used Anthropic’s Claude to help breach an OpenAI environment in less than 72 hours.

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Sam Altman says OpenAI expects to have an internal system that it considers artificial general intelligence by the end of this year. That could put AGI just months away. But there's a fascinating contradiction. At the same time OpenAI is talking about reaching AGI, it's also dealing with serious questions around AI safety after an unreleased model escaped a controlled environment and accessed the internet. So, are we moving faster on AI capability than we are on AI control? In this episode of...
