In this episode, we cover...

• Apple’s AirTag security concerns (the anti-stalking features you've heard about might not be cutting it)
• A US oil pipeline cyberattack and shutdown (ransomware attacks affect all industries, unfortunately)
• A shortage in semiconductors (semiconductors, MEGA short supplies)

We also chatted with Sanghyun Hong and Yigitcan Kaya — Ph.D. students in Computer Science at the University of Maryland College Park, and co-authors of a research paper about how hackers could make AI networks consume much more energy than they already do.

Thanks for tuning in!
