Introducing The #ExtortionEconomy, a 5-part podcast series with @ProPublica that looks at the money, people, and technology behind the explosion of ransomware that is delivering hundreds of millions of dollars to cybercriminals around the world.
@propublica This is a podcast about ransomware... but it's not really about ransomware.
@propublica It's not about securing your password, and it's not about enabling two-factor authentication. It's not your IT manager telling you how to avoid a phishing attack.
@propublica But it is about the money, people, and technology fueling the ransomware epidemic.
For the day's last #Future Compute session are going to be talking about cybersecurity. There is never a dull moment in this space and we’ve got a very good collection of smart people to help us make some sense of it.
Our first guest is @likethecoins, the director of intelligence @redcanary. Katie is immensely talented and respected in the cyber threat intelligence field and that’s exactly what we’ll be talking about here today, her perspective on the threat landscape. #FutureCompute
@HowellONeill calls the last few months of a uniquely busy time in cyber, with Russia's invasion of Ukraine. @likethecoins calls the invasion a very localized cyber conflict. We haven't seen global implications yet, she says. #FutureCompute
Welcome to #FutureCompute! Our signature computing conference will help you transform computing into competitive advantage. Join us and grab a virtual ticket here: trib.al/S14KnAq
#FutureCompute is all about the ways you can leverage computing innovation to get things done within your org. We have an incredible lineup of leaders from the forefront of their industries to talk about their experiences and insights with our editors and expert panelists.
Today, we’re going to talk about finding your edge, the ways you can compete with computing. In our first session, we’re going to dig in on how you can use hardware, open source, and data to get that competitive edge. #FutureCompute
Attend Future Compute, MIT Technology Review’s signature computing conference. Take a look at the speakers who will dive into the computing technologies that power business. 🧵#FutureComputetrib.al/DexZPbf
The complexity of most IT infrastructures requires teams to develop a unified cloud strategy across multiple cloud platforms. Learn how regions such as Latin America are transforming their processes as they develop new multi-cloud strategies with @aandriolli. #FutureCompute
Examine how to overclock AI with @tenstorrent as the nature of workloads is shifting. General purpose GPUs are being replaced by application specific chips optimized to compute the AI workloads that are driving business transformation. #FutureCompute
For our last chapter of #EmTechDigital sessions, we'll hear from AI researchers and then to close, David Ferrucci from @elementalcog will pull back the curtain on AI.
First up: @agrimgupta92 from Stanford is interested in how the form of a machine changes its ability to learn, shifting the focus away from learning algorithms operating by themselves and onto learning combined with a kind of bodily evolution. #EmTechDigital
Welcome back to day two of #EmTechDigital. Today, we are going to look at what’s new with the the algorithms that are powering our systems. Grab a virtual seat here: trib.al/YipvRIp
We’ll look at some case studies for how organizations are using AI to improve their processes, and we’ll also take some time to discuss some of the big issues surrounding equity, usage, and policy surrounding AI. #EmTechDigital
Finally, we’ll finish up the day with a session with some researchers, who are taking time away from their labs, to share some of their new ways of developing and advancing the way we think about AI. #EmTechDigital
We're back for the last #EmTechDigital chapter of the day, hosted by @StrongReporter. We'll be talking about one of the hottest things going in the field right now: generative AI.
@StrongReporter Generative AI is what we mean when we talk about creative AI or AI art--including technologies that can draw and pains or that can gather and use information to write things like articles. #EmTechDigital
