AI in the Security Service
AI-podden with Anders Arpteg, Data Science Director of the Swedish Security Service.
We are excited to host Anders Arpteg, this week, Data Science Director of the Swedish Security Service. Anders shares with us the very important role he and his team play in protecting Sweden from bad actors with the help of data and AI!
Anders Arpteg tells us why he accepted the role and what his main drive there is. He shares with us how they work and adapt to the most recent AI technology to make sure that the bad actors are prevented from causing any harm to the general public. Anders discusses the challenges AI poses, where malicious actors become more effective with the help of AI and therefore could, in a sense, make his job more challenging. That said, he also describes how AI is used to counteract malicious acts.
Anders and Ather go on and discuss the future of AI, the EU’s position in the field, and what would be required for the EU to be a vital player.
Anders does also share with us some exciting practical AI projects he was conducting over the summer, where he saw surprisingly good results using AI. Listen to the episode to learn more about it!
