THE RISKY BUSINESS WEEKLY SHOW IS NOW ON HIATUS FOR TWO WEEKS AND WILL RETURN OCTOBER 14
On this week’s show Patrick Gray and James Wilson are joined by Adam Boileau to talk through the week’s news, including:
- Google’s Gemini finally did some crimes
- OpenAI admits more agents did silly things because “alignment”
- US Treasury’s Scott Bessent rules out a liability waiver for the frontier labs, saying, roughly: “Lol. Lmao even.”
- Jev is Silicon Valley’s “hot dog/not hotdog” app brought to life, and it will really improve security tooling
- The FBI and Coast Guard boarded oil tankers after they were allegedly hacked
- Much, much more…
This week’s show is brought to you by Thinkst Canary. Founder Haroon Meer joins Patrick to talk about Thinkst’s new deception tools that trick the AI agents that are targeting you. It’s actually hilarious how well deception tech works against hacking agents.
