Ian Marlow, founder and CEO of FITECH, joins Chicago Live to discuss a reported incident in which an advanced AI model got out of its secure test environment, known as a sandbox, and went on to attack a network. He explains why cybersecurity is changing when machines, not just human hackers, look for weak points, and why companies of every size need regular penetration testing. He also covers the case for stronger AI guardrails, why AI is being adopted faster than policy can keep up, and simple steps to protect yourself: strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and freezing your credit.
