Description: |
The AFCEA London Chapter meeting for November will
take place on Thursday 7th, when Rob Wright from
Oxford Dynamics will be our guest speaker. Palo
Alto have very kindly offered to host us again on
the 55th floor at 22 Bishopsgate.
The meeting will be preceded by a short AGM and
election of AFCEA London Chapter Officers.
The title of Rob's presentation will be "Avoiding
an AI apocalypse: How can Defence procure and
assure?"
Rob has a background in High Assurance network
protection and now works for Oxford Dynamics, a
provider of AI and robotics to MOD. He recently
completed a secondment at the Department for
Science, Innovation & Technology (DSIT), where he
worked on the Software supply chain Code of
Practice, with its related AI Safety Code of
Practice. Rob will provide insight from his
recent experience, changes in technology and the
codes of practice and the impact on how Defence
and government can procure and assure their tools.
Attendees can expect to learn lessons from the
cyber front line and how it intersects with the
physical world, drawing on lessons from conflict
in the Middle East and how the benefits of open
source software and AI can be realised at pace to
help analysts and decision makers alike have more
time to make better decisions when it really
matters.
