Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Powering the UK's fastest supercomputer: Isambard AI
Q: Emma, we've stood in front of a panel with some information on it. Could you tell me what we're looking at here?
It's the building management system for the modular data center, which shows the status of alerts, power usage, and overall health of the cooling infrastructure.
Can we protect ourselves from AI-powered cybercrime?
Q: How should organizations defend against AI-enabled threats?
Adopt a multi-layer defense strategy, use the network as both sensor and enforcement point, and leverage threat intelligence feeds that continuously update protective measures.
Can we protect ourselves from AI-powered cybercrime?
Q: What does the current threat landscape look like in 2026?
The landscape is accelerating in scale and speed due to AI and automation, with attacks affecting all sectors and increasingly leveraging automation and deepfakes to operate at scale.
Sixty years of innovation: how would we use a quantum computer?
Q: How do AI and quantum computing complement each other?
AI can assist with calibration, control, and deciding which problems warrant quantum-level computation, while quantum simulations can generate high-quality data that AI methods can leverage for faster discovery and validation.
Sixty years of innovation: how would we use a quantum computer?
Q: What will a quantum computer do that classical computers cannot do today?
They are expected to tackle problems involving exponentially large state spaces, such as complex quantum chemistry simulations and optimized material designs, where quantum data can be processed more efficiently than with classical approaches, particularly when integrated with AI/HPC stacks.
