The Security Box, AI and its usage

Hello folks, welcome to another edition of The Security Box. This week’s program focuses on AI and its usage, where it’s helping, where it’s being misused, and where the risks are starting to show up in real-world security, privacy, and accessibility scenarios. AI continues to move fast, and not always in ways users understand or consent to. We’ll talk about how AI is being deployed, what assumptions are being made on behalf of users, and where responsibility still needs to remain firmly human. As part of this discussion, we may touch on: AI in everyday consumer tools and services Security and privacy implications of AI-driven systems Automation vs. accountability Accessibility impacts — where AI helps and where it creates new barriers The growing gap between marketing claims and real-world behavior As always, this is a discussion-driven program. Topics may evolve as the conversation unfolds, and recent events or examples may be referenced as part of the broader AI landscape.
