AI as a weapon, AI as a target: what happens when AI goes rogue?

Hear what “AI going rogue” actually means, why it’s usually a human clarity problem rather than a machine one, and why so few organizations are acting on risks they could easily see. Expect concrete examples, real data on adoption versus preparedness, and practical steps to close the gap.

AI adoption is moving fast. Organizations connect AI to more systems, hand it more sensitive data, and give it more autonomy, often before they know how to protect it.

This webinar looks at where that gets dangerous: how models themselves can be compromised, how the systems around them create the real exposure, and what happened when an AI agent’s actions turned into an incident that made headlines.

Many organizations are focused on making AI work, following the same pattern every technology adoption cycle follows: security comes after adoption. That’s a position that makes sense, but risks don’t wait for adoption to catch up to security.

Rob van der Veer, SIG’s Chief AI Officer, and Bret Kinsella, GM of Fuel iX and AI Platforms at TELUS Digital, join to unpack what “AI going rogue” actually means, why it’s usually a human clarity problem rather than a machine one, and why so few organizations are acting on risks they could easily see. Expect concrete examples, real data on adoption versus preparedness, and practical steps to close the gap.

Join us and learn:

  • How models and the systems around them get compromised, with real examples
  • What organizations are actually doing today to manage these risks, and where that falls short
  • Why “AI going rogue” is usually a human clarity problem, not a machine one
  • What blast radius control, human-in-the-loop, and kill switches actually require
  • Why lack of knowledge is not the same as lack of risk, and where to start
