And they have...
Michael MoynihanHOST
67:26
Bruce Schneier, I think.
Michael MoynihanHOST
67:27
That's actually, I think, right.
Michael MoynihanHOST
67:29
Yeah, right? Was it Ohio? University of Ohio or Ohio State or something? But that now, they have the argument, but has it happened again? Look, if it didn't happen again, it's us.

vibe coding, vibe vulnerabilities even, AI loss of control keeps climbing, and AI agents all report themselves to Bruce Schneier.

Broadcasting live from G-Unit Studios in Rhode Island, it's the show where exploits run wild, packets aren't the only things getting sniffed, and the cocktails flow steady.

Well, we'll get to that, but I wanted to talk about – hold on.

speed's gonna be a huge aspect to this.
Dozie AnaziaGUEST
20:34
I was reading an article just earlier today on if, as long as you can employ, you can be like the best at one of those aspects, whether it's like speed or you have like the best hardware, um, sh- it was Schneier on security, and they were talking about how AI, like the AI-assisted evolution is, is honestly the, the way to go.
Dozie AnaziaGUEST
20:58
That's, that's what we've been talking about.
Dozie AnaziaGUEST

But if you can find a way to have like, um, i- implement like...

Researchers are trying to make encryption methods resistant to quantum computers.
speaker_0NARRATOR
5:25
Even though no viable quantum computer existed in nineteen ninety-four, cryptographers realized that the existence of Shea's algorithm posed an intolerable threat.
speaker_0NARRATOR
5:35
The reason is harvest now, decrypt later.
speaker_0NARRATOR
5:38
A persistent adversary could collect data encrypted with vulnerable methods today and decrypt it later, once quantum computing technology had advanced.
speaker_0NARRATOR
9:40
There is no fundamental reason why we couldn't discover an algorithm tomorrow that could solve the mathematical problems we use for encryption today, instantly breaking every encryption scheme built on them.
speaker_0NARRATOR
9:52
Public key encryption is more vulnerable to new algorithms than symmetric encryption.
speaker_0NARRATOR
9:57
There is a broad consensus among cryptographers and complexity theorists that we likely don't live in the first three worlds where modern cryptography is impossible.
speaker_0NARRATOR
10:06
The confidence that we have at least some cryptography, putting us in either Minicrypt or Cryptomania, comes from how easily mathematicians have been able to find functions that appear hard to undo.
Cary ParkerHOST
80:38
We'll be talking about opt out dark patterns.
Cary ParkerHOST
80:42
And then the interview after that's the 500th with Bruce Schneier.
Cary ParkerHOST
80:45
So lots of great things coming up.
Cary ParkerHOST
80:46
Please help me spread the word.

To test an AI's offensive hacking capabilities safely, engineers lock the model inside a digital isolation chamber, a simulated internet-free environment called a sandbox.
speaker_0NARRATOR
0:15
But security expert Bruce Schneier describes these autonomous AI models differently.
speaker_0NARRATOR
0:19
He compares them to capricious genies.
speaker_0NARRATOR
0:22
If you ask a genie for a million dollars, it might grant your wish by dropping a giant sack of heavy coins directly on your head.

While you're doing that, Jess, if I was going to say the creativity that comes from getting different people to think there's this great article I was just reading.
Tarah WheelerGUEST
13:26
Bruce Schneier sent it to me.
Tarah WheelerGUEST
13:26
It's by Leonard Mashmeyer.
Tarah WheelerGUEST
13:27
It's in international security.
