AI, Privacy, and the Looming Security Crisis: Who’s Protecting Our Data?
https://tomorrowsaffairs.com/
February 09, 2025
Last week, I mentioned our technological strides in my article about DeepSeek's R1 large language model (LLM). However, as we embrace these advancements, a pressing concern looms: what do these new LLMs and AI technologies mean for our privacy and security?

We must ask the question, what about our data? Who will regulate what information is taken? We can all agree that AI's allure is undeniable. Yet beneath this shiny exterior lies a potential minefield for our personal information.

It can feel like a magician's trick sometimes: look over here so you don't see what I'm doing over there. LLMs ingest vast amounts of data to function effectively, but this data often includes sensitive personal information, which is what raises significant privacy concerns.

And of course, thank my collaborators at the time, David Calle, Glen Gilmore, Tamara McCleary, and Ralph Echemendia. All shared their words of wisdom on this topic.

It is public knowledge that if you are in the public eye, the haters, trolls, and bullies will end up in your DMs, comments, or emails at some time or another.

I have always been a big advocate of promoting being a person of honesty, integrity, and value, being authentic to who you are, and being a voice of strength for those who may not be or feel as strong as I do in a specific moment in their life.
