Details

If you’ve kept your eye on AI in the news this year, and who hasn’t, you’ll have heard all about Mythos, the short lived ban on Anthropic’s Fable frontier model and maybe even the recent US Whitehouse Gold Eagle initiative.

If you missed any of this, and even if you didn’t you may have missed the frighteningly real emerging situation: we’ve crossed a threshold into a new world where software vulnerability detection and exploitation are beginning to outstrip human abilities to respond.

In this panel discussion, we’ll explore what’s been happening, where it might all be going, and most importantly what does it mean for Java developers.

We’ll look at tools you can use, the rise of open-source clearing houses, the consequences of legislation, organizations to follow and ways to get ahead of what might just be the world of tomorrow.
