10 statements about AI Security, every show
Arora: Open-source models will automate offensive cyberattacks within months
“I think in two, three months from now, open source have distilled all these capabilities, and we'll find open source models out there, which you can find to you if you're an attacker, to actually do this on a task basis.”
Kolter: AI evals test average performance; security tests worst-case performance
“Most evaluations are done kind of in a, They measure expected value, basically. They measure sort of how well does it work on average, and security measures how well does it work in the worst case.”
Schulhoff: Future cybersecurity jobs and risks sit where classical security meets AI
“This gets us a bit into the intersection of classical cybersecurity and AI security slash adversarial robustness, and this is where I think the security jobs of the future are. There's not an incredible amount of value in just doing AI red teaming. And I suppo…”
Schulhoff: Cybersecurity secures AI short-term; AI researchers must solve it long-term
“AI researchers are the only people who can solve this stuff long-term, but cybersecurity professionals are the only one who can, or the only ones who can kind of solve it short-term largely in making sure we deploy properly permissioned systems and nothing tha…”
Emmons: Hackers Will Continually Bypass AI Guardrails Despite Future Breakthroughs
“We may have, and I would think we'll have big breakthroughs over the coming years that really help curb some of this, but there's still going to be the black and white hat hackers who are going to try to prove that we can get around it just like we have today,…”
Pineau: AI agents are opening an unmapped new frontier in security
“With respect to AI security, I think there's a new front that's opening up with the development of agents, and frankly, there's a lot we don't know yet in terms of the vulnerability of these systems.”
Costica: AI Security Is Being Addressed Much Earlier Than Prior Tech Waves
“And the concepts behind, I think, today, AI security are actually well thought today rather than much later. And it shows a bit on the maturity of not only the security teams, by the way, it shows a lot on the maturity of the industry that we are having the di…”
Schulhoff: Prompt injection is not solvable, only mitigatable
“It is not a solvable problem, which I think is very difficult for a lot of people to hear... So, you know, it's not solvable. It's mitigatable. You can kind of sometimes detect and track when it's happening, but it's really, really not solvable. And that's one…”
Sanghi: At least 50 Silicon Valley startups focus solely on AI security
“In the Valley. There are like at least 50 startups that are just focusing on AI security.”
Carlini: AI security research depends on whether models act autonomously or keep humans in loop
“The way in which security intersects with these things depends a lot in exactly how people use these tools. You know, if it turns out to be the case that these models get to be truly amazing and can solve, you know, tasks completely autonomously, that's a very…”
