In this episode of Agents of Tech, we explore the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and its intersection with cybersecurity. Our host, Autria Godfrey, is joined by Dr. Siwei Lyu, Director of the University at Buffalo Media Forensics Lab, and Dr. Damon McCoy, Co-Director of the NYU Center for Cybersecurity, to discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by AI.
From the dangers of deepfakes and their role in misinformation to the vulnerabilities of critical infrastructures, our guests weigh in on the pressing need for innovative detection tools, ethical AI development, and global cybersecurity collaboration. Dr. Lyu introduces his groundbreaking DeepFake-o-Meter, while Dr. McCoy highlights real-world examples of AI-enhanced cyberattacks and shares insights on safeguarding data in an era of decentralization.
If you’re interested in the cutting-edge applications of AI in cybersecurity and the measures being taken to protect against its misuse, this episode is a must-watch.
