Session: Using Artificial Intelligence, Safely
Artificial intelligence is increasingly prevalent in software development, and as a result its safe and responsible use has become critical. We will dive into risks, such as unchecked decision making, AI agency, lack of validation, broken or missing oversight, and sensitive data exposures. We will also provide constructive insights on leveraging AI for code development, vulnerability detection, threat modeling, design assistance, and more. Through real-life examples and practical advice, this session will help you develop with AI, safely.
