Techstrong Gang - 3/12/24

Alan, Mike, Mitch, Bonnie and guest Chris Blask debate the role government should play in applying rules to artificial intelligence (AI), social media sites such as TikTok and climate change. The challenge, as always, is finding a way to apply those rules in ways that won’t eventually run afoul of the courts.

Techstrong Gang - 3/11/24

Alan, Mike, Mitch, Sharon and guest John Willis dive into why Microsoft's and Google's generative AI platforms create disturbing images, which naturally leads to a conversation about the degree to which these platforms are -- or should be -- trusted. Meanwhile, the Toyota Research Institute is now one step closer to embedding AI into robots for the home, which could have some interesting consequences.

Techstrong Gang - 3/7/24

Alan, Mike, Mitch, Bonnie and special guest Mark Hinkle dive into the impact artificial intelligence (AI), along with cloud-native and Bitcoin applications, are having on our climate. The challenge, of course, is finding the best way to advance innovation in a way that promotes sustainability.

Techstrong Gang - 3/5/24

Alan, Mike, Mitch, Amanda and Chris Blask unravel the cybersecurity challenges GitHub is encountering, as malicious forks within codebases proliferate across its open repository. Then, the gang dives into the challenges organizations are facing as they look to secure artificial intelligence (AI) models. Finally, the economics of cybersecurity are becoming more complex as costs increase in an era where business leaders are asking harder questions about justifying return on investments.
