AI agents are evolving rapidly — and so are the risks.
In TSG Ep. 1031, Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard, Chris Blask, Kate Scarcella and Sid Nag revisit OpenClaw and examine what its continued adoption means for security, governance and operational control.
The panel then analyzes how generative AI tools were reportedly used to assist in a cyberattack against the Mexican government, highlighting the growing concern around AI misuse and defensive preparedness.
Finally, the discussion turns to the developer workforce. As AI systems automate coding and streamline workflows, what happens to junior engineers who traditionally learn through repetition and real-world experience?
This episode explores the tension between innovation and risk — across security, governance and the future of software development.
