Podcast appearances and mentions of bob ackerman

Artificial Intelligence is all the rage right now with broad claims about how it is going to change the world as we know it. I have my doubts about the hype and so does Bob Ackerman, the granddaddy of cybersecurity venture capital, founder and managing director of AllegisCyber Capital (for the past 29 years) and cofounder of the cyber incubator, DataTribe in Maryland. I always enjoy chatting with Bob because he sees the nuts and bolts of tech advancements and isn't the kind of investor to get swayed by the glitz of questionable marketing. In this session, we discussed how AI is starting to displace high-paying jobs like computer coding and legal work, raising concerns about who will be left to buy the AI subscriptions and services. While there will be short-term disruption, he thinks AI will ultimately enable new industries and use cases that create new jobs and economic opportunities. Surprisingly enough, he believes the transition may require policies like universal basic income to support displaced workers.We also discussed the demographic challenges facing countries like the US and Europe, with aging populations and declining birth rates straining social welfare systems. dAI and automation may help address labor shortages, but also raise questions about how to fund programs like Social Security and Medicare long-term.More importantly, Bob thinks that the people who invested in AI early will to lose their shirts.Check it out.

25 years of BlackHat gatherings and related research. 20+ years of venture capital, investments, and mergers & acquisitions dedicated to CyberSecurity. That's a lot of time and presumably a lot of effort and money. So...where do we find ourselves on the road to better cyber defenses?Our guest for this episode is Bob Ackerman. Bob started AllegisCyber nearly 20 years ago with the vision to be the first venture firm to focus 100% on cyber security investing. We are experiencing a third downmarket where Bob has been as a dedicated cyber VC—a distinction shared by a select few—and he has helped hundreds of startups navigate these cycles. The geopolitical landscape, threats to civilian critical infrastructure, and heightened government involvement collectively make this market even more different, uncertain, and riddled with risk for the startups and investors new to the cyber domain. A lot has happened. But a lot has stayed the same as well.
