So true about papers being scanned for plagiarism just as librarians have always decided which books are most suitable to their public. It’s been around for a long time. I feel for the authors of the 183,000 books that were chosen for the AI monster to devour. Hoping this is remedied.
We are still at the infancy of AI and there are so much more to discover. But it has become clear that as AI continues to evolve, both new and traditional risk management strategies will play a vital role in mitigating potential threats and challenges. Thank you for sharing your expertise and I look forward to reading your future essay on similar topics.
Wow, you are describing a nightmare Stephanie. I hope this is not too much of a tangent. Your reference to PII brought back an unpleasant memory. The systems in banking, at least in the United States are ARCHAIC by any reasonable standard. There was a recent story on Bloomberg which pointed to Eisenhower-era designs that remain part of important systems. OMG., Highly regulated businesses (like airlines, banks, power generation, military) are a hopeless number of generations behind in their architectures. I was part of a team that developed an architecture for a wholesale swapout of the main Data Warehouse systems for a very large bank (Top 5) which included both consumer facing and brokerage. The PII minimization part of the solution (my focus as I had experience in other heavily regulated industries) was so hopelessly complex it seemed inevitable that loss of data integrity recurred frequently. I've often wondered whether international banking is "better". I have a friend who over a couple of drinks explained to me the basic architecture of SWIFT and I was flabbergasted. The risk tolerance, in my opinion, was SO LOW, a viable upgrade was never going to be approved. Sometimes systems need to fail catastrophically and the old regime pushed out before change is possible. I think this is the near future for electrical infrastructure, banking and perhaps even military production. They are all too slow, expensive and inadequate in their offerings. I am rooting for a new way of thinking to overwhelm them.
Hi Mark, I have a different perspective. As a user, I've encountered data loss prevention systems many times on corporate systems, and never notice their presence. On the back-end, I'm sure there are well-designed and poorly designed implementations (sounds like you encountered a poorly designed one!), but the user experience should be pretty seamless with any kind of reasonable implementation.
To your other points, I agree that a bunch of existing infrastructure systems are old and creaky. They tend to get replaced when the cost and risk of continued maintenance exceed the risk posed by replacement. Should they be replaced sooner? Probably!
