In this special episode of Techstrong Gang, recorded live at AI Field Day in San Jose, Jon is joined by co-host Stephen Foskett and special guests Gina Rosenthal of Digital Sunshine Solutions and John Willis. They start with a behind-the-scenes look at what Tech Field Day means to them and why it continues to be important after more than a decade.
The panel considers the impact of DeepSeek and changing U.S. government policies on the world of AI, debating the knee-jerk reactions to DeepSeek and questioning whether it’s truly a Sputnik moment or something simpler. Finally, they discuss the recent reports about the termination of the CISA and CSRB, along other elements of the U.S. government, on cybersecurity.
