Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: How AI Alters Thinking
Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: How AI Alters Thinking
[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“How AI Alters Thinking,”** on dealing with artificial intelligence’s capacity to change and undermine our thought processes, with Eli Alshanetsky, assistant professor of philosophy at Temple University, principal investigator at its Cognitive Integrity Lab, and author of an upcoming book on AI and freedom of thought. [Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-how-ai-alters](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-how-ai-alters) .] Doctors who give bad advice can be sued for malpractice. Teachers belong to a profession with set standards. When artificial intelligence guides you, however, that guidance comes with a disclaimer: Use at your own risk. Every day millions of people take that risk, and usually AI seems genuinely helpful. But even if AI gives us good answers, might its use over time do bad things to how we think? Explore the relationship between AI and our own minds with Eli Alshanetsky, whose Cognitive Integrity Lab studies how artificial intelligence changes how we think, learn, and build trust. Author of *Articulating a Thought* and the upcoming book F*reedom of Thought in the Age of AI*, he’s on the cutting edge of efforts to answer AI-related questions such as: How can we tell when work is truly our own? How can technology support rather than replace authorship and reflection? What does trust mean when AI mediates our relationships with others and with our own thoughts? To set up his discussion of potential consequences of AI, he’ll describe how social media’s impact on society serves as a preview. Social media didn’t just give people what they wanted to click on, it actually changed what they regarded as click-worthy. It broke attention spans and fueled radicalization across millions of very different people. It left us with people who doom-scroll for hours, who can’t focus, who don’t know what to trust anymore. If you’d shown people this version of themselves ten years ago, would they have chosen it? Artificial intelligence is making a similar deal with us, but the stakes are higher. It isn’t chasing clicks. It’s optimized for giving you the most satisfying response to whatever is on your mind right now. The risk over time isn’t just that you’ll get lazy. More profoundly, even when you think hard, your sense of what counts as good thinking—as well as what sounds like you—will shift to match what AI has been feeding you. We’ll consider what kind of person this produces and whether this is someone we want to be or want children to become. Professor Alshanetsky will lay out a practical framework, which he calls “the interaction layer,” for using AI without letting it replace the thinking it’s supposed to support. He’ll also talk about what AI-related concerns should be the focus of parents and educators. (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. Talk starts 30 minutes later.)

Inside the Modern Threat Landscape: How Attackers Weaponize Trust
Inside the Modern Threat Landscape: How Attackers Weaponize Trust
What does a trojan look like when it has over 900k+ combined installs and a Forbes write-up? Exactly like a legitimate Chrome extension. This session presents a technical dissection of two Chrome extensions, each with over one million active installations — that functioned as trojans in production environments, evading detection while operating through entirely legitimate browser APIs. These were not obscure tools. They were widely trusted, actively recommended, and covered by mainstream press before their malicious behavior was fully understood. We will walk through the actual source code of both extensions, showing precisely how the malicious functionality was constructed, concealed, and executed at scale. This analysis anchors a broader examination of how modern compromises actually succeed. Drawing on aggregated real-world incident data, we identify the technique categories currently delivering the highest adversary return, and why they keep working. Spoiler: it's rarely a zero-day. It's trust. The Chrome extension deep-dive will cover: * Line-by-line source analysis of how malicious functionality was embedded within working, useful software * Which browser permission scopes were abused, and why a million users — and their IT teams — didn't see it coming * The behavioral and structural indicators that distinguish a trojan extension from a legitimate one, and how to operationalize detection around them This session closes with a practical defensive prioritization framework built around observed attacker behavior: which mitigations are measurably reducing risk in production environments, which are consuming budget without impact, and a scoring methodology your team and leadership can apply immediately. **Source material:** Primary analysis of extension source code, corroborated by reporting from Forbes and other established outlets. **What this is not:** A vendor pitch, a speculative threat narrative, or a surface-level breach retrospective. **Who should attend:** Security architects, AppSec and cloud security practitioners, blue team leads, threat hunters, browser security practitioners, and security leaders responsible for prioritizing risk and investment decisions.
