And this is another thing I tell my students. It is the most exciting time to be in security since the late 90s because, once again... new kinds of vulnerabilities and bugs are being discovered every day of new entire classes of issues, right? This is what it was like when I was young.

You'd go to a security conference, you'd go to a DEF CON or Black Hat, and you'd go to a talk, and somebody would get on stage and they would talk about some new research. You would leave and you'd be like, wow, I think every single product on the planet is vulnerable to that bug because nobody's ever heard of it, right? And that's what AI is like right now, is that

You know, somebody might say we built a secure AI system and you're like, you can't make that promise because nobody knows what the vulnerabilities are in these systems yet. Like just the fundamental research hasn't been done yet. And so it is like both a terrifying and really fun time to be alive if you're in this field.
