Talk: From Security to Safety: Navigating the Ethics of AI as Red Teamers and Penetration Testers
Talks will be streamed on YouTube and Twitch for free.
This talk explores the intersection of philosophy, ethics, security, and AI. As AI systems like LLMs become increasingly ubiquitous in our lives, security practitioners are shifting from testing security to testing for safety - a fundamentally normative issue. A transition to this new paradigm can be an uneasy one for professionals accustomed to the comfort of (relatively) objective processes. I argue that despite some initial discomfort, penetration testers & red teamers - with our rich history of social awareness and ethically motivated action - are well-positioned to tackle AI safety and responsibility challenges. We can do this by reframing what we already know how to do so well in other contexts: balance technical rigour on a robust foundation of humility, curiosity, compassion and epistemological self-awareness.
