Mahmoud Ghanem, the cyber misuse team lead at the UK government's AI Safety Institute, will explore these questions through the lens of cyberpunk speculative fiction, using variety of examples, including from his own experience working in cybersecurity and AI research.
While Ghanem is currently employed as researcher, he identifies more as a technician than a scientist. He has spent most of his career building things, ranging from tools to help scientists run more experiments, to platforms that help detectives solve more crimes.
