While AI makes it easier for people to create art, it also threatens the livelihood of artists. The use of poisoning tools like Glaze and Nightshade can prevent AI from generating exactly what people are looking for. The conversation explores the ethical implications of AI replacing human artists and the need for corporate responsibility in protecting artists' work.

Cleveland Rocked But Not Rolled By Cyberattack
The city of Cleveland refuses to pay a ransom demand by cyber attackers, which is a positive sign. The team speculates that the city of Cleveland likely have good cyber hygiene and a recovery plan in place. It's important to not pay ransom demands as it encourages more attacks. Cleveland's segmentation of networks and adherence to best practices is commendable. It's crucial for cities and municipalities to follow suit and protect their data.

15K Car Dealerships Shutdown By Ransomware
A software company called CDK was hacked, causing 15,000 car dealerships across North America to be crippled. The dealerships relied on CDK's software for various operations, including car sales and maintenance. Some dealerships had to resort to pen and paper, while others were unable to perform any tasks. The attack had a significant impact on the auto industry, which made $1.2 trillion in US sales last year. CDK may be considering paying tens of millions of dollars in ransom to get their systems back online. The attack highlights the vulnerability of relying on a single software system and the importance of cybersecurity.

Microsoft & Google Plan To Rescue Rural Hospitals
Microsoft and Google are offering cyber help to rural hospitals in an initiative by the Biden administration. The hospitals, which are critical for surrounding areas, often lack proper cybersecurity measures and are vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Microsoft is offering discounts on security products and free licenses to upgrade their systems, while Google is running a pilot program to assess their specific needs. This initiative is a positive step in improving the security posture of rural hospitals and ensuring the safety of patients. It also presents an opportunity for Microsoft and Google to gain further traction in this sector.
