Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
On this week's Silicon Valley Insider, host Keith Koo re-airs a very popular show with special guest Gary Smith who is the Fletcher Jones Professor of Economics at Pomona College in Claremont, Ca. Gary was also a professor at Yale and has written over 80 academic papers and 13 books and with his most recent being "The AI Delusion". With all the news regarding "Artificial Intelligence" and how this technology is rapidly advancing, Gary and Keith have a rational dialog on what AI currently is and where it is headed.
Keith and Gary talk about why Gary wrote his book and why AI is not yet ready to take over the world. AI is good for very specific tasks but not yet ready for task that involve critical thinking or human judgment. Gary is noted for a term he uses frequently "torturing data" in reference to finding causation in any data set whether valid or not. As a reminder, "correlation is not causation".
Gary's book is available on Amazon.com
For the Cyber-Tip of the week, Keith talks about what to do if you had files lost from the Windows 10 upgrade.
In next week's show, Keith will intereview Jotham Ty who is the Founder and CEO of Gappify a Silcion Valley startup developing accounting "bots". Instead of training entry level accountants, Joatham is training people to develop accounting bots. Tune in next week to about Gappify.

On this week's Silicon Valley Insider, host Keith Koo speaks with Thomas Nimmo, CEO of Cybefense, a company transforming how technology risk assessments are done and how they are paid for. As regular listeners know, Keith Koo is an expert on Technology Risk and speaks frequently on the need for companies to completely and accurately risk assess their vendors, partners and other third parties.
Cyber risk assessments can easily start at $10,000 USD for a customer to evaluate whether a third-party (or vendor) meets minimum risk standards. For many small and medium businesses the cost of risk assessments are cost prohibitive and they simply forgo doing them even when mandated through laws and regulations (banking, financial services, healthcare, automotive, insurance, etc...) These small businesses take a gamble that they won't have a devastating attack on their critical infrastructure and vendors. However, as we often hear in the news data breaches and cyber-attacks are indiscriminate and can affect organizations large and small. Small and medium businesses who lack the resources and investment in systems can be taken down quite easily without the proper controls.
Cyberfense's approach is to make the cost of risk assessments free to the end customer by providing incentives for the third-party (or vendor). This approach empowers small and medium businesses (such as insurance brokers) to get the information they need to protect themselves.
Listen to the show to hear all the details on how you can get 1) free risk assessments and 2) get your third-party (or vendor) to respond to the risk assessments.
