Episode Overview

For more than twelve months, this series has been exploring the evolving landscape of technology. In this week’s installment, we confront the growing anxiety surrounding artificial intelligence and its potential to amplify cyberattacks, as well as the persistent menace of ransomware syndicates seizing control of personal data. To provide expert insight into these emerging digital dangers, we sit down with a former Federal Bureau of Investigation specialist.

Additionally, the episode features a compelling story from a listener who is leveraging advanced dermatological technology to teach students about the critical importance of sun safety.
