The panelists - Anna Delaney, director of productions; Mathew Schwartz, executive editor of DataBreachToday and Europe; Rashmi Ramesh, assistant editor, global news desk; and Tom Field, senior vice president, editorial - discussed:

  • Why Donald Trump's campaign official accused Iranian hackers of stealing and leaking internal documents as part of a broader election interference campaign targeting the 2024 U.S. election, raising concerns about other foreign meddling;
  • Whether criticisms of OpenAI's new GPT-4o Voice Mode saying that it blurs the line between AI and human relationships are valid or overblown;
  • Key takeaways from conversations with speakers at the Black Hat 2024 conference in Las Vegas last week.
