KEY POINTS

  • Sander Schulhoff, an AI security researcher and prompt engineering pioneer, said traditional cybersecurity teams lack AI expertise.
  • Schulhoff explained that AI systems fail unlike conventional software, making patching security issues ineffective.
  • Google acquired cybersecurity startup Wiz for $32 billion in March to enhance cloud security amid rising AI risks.

In a thrilling episode of 'Wait, We Don’t Know AI?', AI security whiz Sander Schulhoff reminds us that traditional cybersecurity teams are basically the old map readers lost on the Google Maps of AI logic. Schulhoff, who once penned an early prompt engineering guide and now runs AI red-teaming hackathons (think ethical hackers but more confused), dropped truth bombs on December Sunday: 'You can patch a bug, but you can’t patch a brain.' Meanwhile, Google casually shelled out $32 billion to buy startup Wiz, hoping cloud security can catch up before AI goes full Shakespearean tragedy. Schulhoff also kicks sand in the face of AI guardrail startups boasting to 'catch everything,' labeling them liars about as trustworthy as a politician’s promise. The headline? The security jobs worth having in the future are those who can babysit an AI’s wild brain, not just slap on boring patches.
