AI and CND - implications for security in the era of Artificial Intelligence

Presented at BSidesLV 2015, Aug. 5, 2015, 6 p.m. (55 minutes)

The purpose of this talk will be to illuminate, promote and create awareness for the field of Artificial Intelligence by providing a purely speculative, yet fun and imaginative outlook on the many ways AI can and will transform society and security. The talk will highlight where AI already exists in the everyday world all around us, sometimes without our realizing it. It will introduce the notion of competing AI's in security as defender vs attacker.
