Thèmes abordés : Post mortem analysis, cyberattack, machine learning, web development
Dans Post Mortem, des ingénieurs reviennent sur des incidents qu'ils ou elles ont vécus.
Dans chaque épisode, nous zoomons sur un événement spécifique, allant d'une panne de système à une cyber-attaque, en passant par un algorithme d'apprentissage de machine se déchaînant avec des données de production. Nous essayons de comprendre ce qui s'est passé et comment les personnes à l'origine de ces systèmes ont résolu la situation.
En cours de route, vous obtiendrez des conseils pratiques partagés par des praticiens expérimentés que vous pourrez mettre en œuvre au sein de votre équipe pour limiter le risque de tels incidents.
In Post Mortem, engineers reflect on real-life incidents of IT systems they experienced.
In each episode, we zoom on a specific event, ranging from a system outage, a cyber-attack, or a machine learning algorithm going wild with production data. We try to understand what happened and how the people behind those systems solved the situation.
Along the way, you’ll get hands-on advice shared by experienced practitioners that you can implement within your team to limit the risk of such incidents.
In this episode of the Post Mortem podcast, we dive deep into the impact of artificial intelligence in modern warfare with retired Colonel John Antal. With over 30 years of experience in the US Army and a prolific career as an author and software industry expert, COL Antal shares his insights into the future of warfare.
We explore the concept of decision dominance in the digital age, discussing the nuances of data & AI applications in military strategy, from 'man in the loop' to 'man out of the loop' systems. COL Antal breaks down the complexities of AI, explaining the progression from Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) to the potential of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and the concept of Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI).
The conversation shifts to the practical implications of AI in military operations, highlighting the evolution from traditional kill chains to AI-enabled kill webs.
We also touch on the lessons learned from recent wars, the Russian/Ukraine war, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Israel/Hamas war, and the importance of continuous adaptation in the face of rapidly advancing technologies.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of technology and military strategy.
