rd AI/LLM Findings Dashboard By www.tenable.com Published On :: Mon, 05 Aug 2024 09:53:56 -0400 In an era of rapidly evolving Artificial Intelligence/Large Language Model (AI/LLM) technologies, cybersecurity practitioners face significant challenges in monitoring unauthorized AI solutions, detecting AI vulnerabilities, and identifying unexpected AI/LLM development. Tenable Security Center leverages advanced detection technologies - agents, passive network monitoring, dynamic application security testing, and distributed scan engines - to surface AI/LLM software, libraries, and browser plugins. The risk managers utilize this dashboard to begin a comprehensive review of the AI/LLM packages in systems and web applications, along with associated vulnerabilities, mitigating risks of exploitation, data leakage, and unauthorized resource consumption.This dashboard provides a detailed view of AI/LLM use by leveraging Nessus plugin (196906) to detect AI/LLM usage in 3 ways: browser extensions, applications, and file paths all common to AI/LLM implementations. AI/LLM vulnerabilities discovered in web applications are identified using the Web Application Scanner, alongside network traffic analysis using the Nessus Network Monitor (NNM). By combining all methods of data collection, the risk managers are able to identify problem areas and other risks associated with AI/LLM.AI/LLM technologies are promising and can transform many industries and businesses, offering new innovation and efficiency opportunities. However, the technology represents a huge security challenge at many layers and this impact should not be overlooked. By using Tenable Security Center and Tenable Web App Scanning the organization is able to take a security-first approach. When combined with best practices and robust governance policies, the organizations can harness the power of AI/LLM and mitigate the associated emerging threats.ComponentsAI/LLM Software Known to Nessus: This matrix provides summary counts of AI/LLM use by leveraging Nessus plugin (196906).

rd Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue (November 13, 2024 11:00am) By events.umich.edu Published On :: Wed, 16 Oct 2024 18:15:10 -0400 Event Begins: Wednesday, November 13, 2024 11:00am Location: Off Campus Location Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7, 2024Opening Reception: September 19, 2024 Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making. Curated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton. Stamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

rd A tarot card reading for the U.S. economy By www.npr.org Published On :: Fri, 04 Aug 2023 23:20:49 +0000 Predicting the future of the economy is always a dicey proposition. That is especially true after more than three years of pandemic-related economic weirdness. No one quite knows what will happen next.Will the Fed be able to pull off a soft landing and bring down inflation without causing either a recession or a big jump in unemployment? Or will we end up with a hard landing, in which inflation comes down, but at the price of the country's economic health? Or, a third possibility, will the Fed not successfully bring inflation down at all?On today's show, three economic experts explain what they look for when trying to make predictions about what might come next for the U.S. economy. And how those indicators lead them to very different conclusions. We will also consult a tarot card reader...to see if her reading of the future can help us know which outcome is the most likely.This episode was hosted by Keith Romer, Sarah Gonzalez, and Jeff Guo.

rd Maria Bamford gets personal (about) finance By www.npr.org Published On :: Fri, 13 Oct 2023 23:26:29 +0000 Note: There is swearing in this episode.In 2017, The University of Minnesota asked comedian Maria Bamford to give their commencement speech. But the University may not have known what it was in for. In her speech, Bamford told the crowd of graduates how much the university offered to pay her (nothing), her counteroffer ($20,000), and the amount they settled on ($10,000), which (after taxes and fees, etc.) she gave away to students in the audience to pay down their student loans.Maria Bamford is a big believer in full disclosure of her finances, a philosophy she's adopted after decades in a Debtors Anonymous support group. In meetings, she learned important financial tips and tricks to go from thousands of dollars in debt to her current net worth of $3.5 million (a number which, true to her philosophy, she will share with anyone).She spoke with us about her financial issues, how she recovered, and why she believes in total financial transparency, even when it makes her look kinda bad.Disclaimer: Planet Money is not qualified or certified to give financial advice. And Maria is not a spokesperson for Debtors Anonymous in any way.This show was hosted by Kenny Malone and Mary Childs.

rd Grocery prices, credit card debt, and your 401K (Two Indicators) By www.npr.org Published On :: Wed, 17 Apr 2024 22:54:18 +0000 What's going on with consumers? This is one of the trickiest puzzles of this weird economic moment we're in. We've covered a version of this before under the term "vibecession," but it's safe to say, the struggle is in fact real. It is not just in our heads. Sure, sure, some data is looking great. But not all of it. What's interesting, is exactly why the bad feels so much worse than the good feels good. Today on the show, we look into a few theories on why feelings are just not matching up with data. We'll break down some numbers and how to think about them. Then we look at grocery prices in particular, and an effort to combat unfair pricing using a mostly forgotten 1930's law. Will it actually help?

rd The junkyard economist By www.npr.org Published On :: Fri, 24 May 2024 23:51:34 +0000 On today's episode, we ride through the streets of San Francisco with a long-time junkman, Jon Rolston. Jon has spent the last two decades clearing out houses and offices of their junk. He's found all sorts of items: a life-time supply of toilet paper, gold rings, $20,000 in cash. Over the years, he's developed a keen eye for what has value and what might sell. He's become a kind of trash savant.As we ride with Jon, he shows us the whole ecosystem of how our reusable trash gets dealt with — from metals (ferrous and non-ferrous) to tires to cardboard. And we see how our junk can sometimes get a second chance at life. If you can understand the junk market like Jon, you can understand dozens of trends in our economy.
