I'm very good.
Have you played any games recently?
I know you mentioned that you're a gamer on the podcast several times.
What sort of games do you play, Sam?
You got all the right lingo.
Anyway, Sam, when you're playing these games, do you feel like you're constantly having to adjust what you're doing to counter the threats or the villains or the enemy or potentially even other players as their gaming style develops?
I think I'm very much, I will get very comfortable in that playing style and then an enemy will do something completely different and then it will completely throw me.
I'm not a good strategist.
But sadly, much as I'd love to discuss video games, we are going to be talking about real life and how everything is changing in the world of AI.
Of course it is.
Of course it is.
I'm Michael Bird.
Now, Sam, as technology becomes more and more integrated into our lives, the number of cyber attacks has skyrocketed.
Analysis published by Total Assure last year predicted around 803 million cyber attacks per day around the world, a staggering number, with approaching 300 million of those attacks becoming full incidents.
We will, of course, link to this in the show notes.
Crazy numbers, eh?
Yeah, we do.
And also the same technology which attackers leverage can also be used defensively.
Things like AI can be used to spot threats or really anything that doesn't look right to try and keep our organizations and our data safe.
Have no fear, Sam, it will come up in today's interview.
