Abstract
Generative AI has emerged as a disruptive technology with the potential to create content indistinguishable from that produced by humans. While this presents numerous opportunities for innovation and creativity, it also poses significant cybersecurity and ethical risks, particularly the spread of misinformation. This talk will explore the challenges associated with generative AI, including its role in the creation and spread of deepfakes, its potential to exacerbate the fake news phenomenon, and its implications for privacy and security. We will also discuss strategies to mitigate these risks, such as the development of detection algorithms, the establishment of ethical guidelines for AI development, and the importance of digital literacy and critical thinking skills for the public.

How the digital transformation is changing our lives
The COVID-19 pandemic has shown all of us the benefits of information technology. It allows us to work at a distance, to live at a distance, and most importantly, to keep in touch at a distance – with younger and older people, those closest to us, and even make new contacts.
Our society relies more and more on information and operational technologies. Examples include water, energy, heat and cooling supply, communications, healthcare, production and processing of goods, transportation, national security, banking, research and education, and food production.
What all these areas have in common is that they make intensive use of networked distributed computer systems. These systems can be attacked in many ways. This is no longer just a problem for computer “pros” because computer systems are essential to all of us. The effects of “cyber-attacks” range from power outages to the collapse of the health care or banking sectors.
