  • 936: LLMs Are Delighted to Help Phishing Scams

    936: LLMs Are Delighted to Help Phishing Scams
    Oct 31 2025
    How much power – and risk – do we carry around with us in our pockets? A Reuters investigation about how easily LLMs can be utilized for online phishing scams is the subject of this week’s Five-Minute Friday with Jon Krohn. By asking six of the most popular LLMs (Grok, ChatGPT, Meta AI, Claude, DeepSeek and Gemini) to generate phishing emails specifically targeting elderly people, Reuters found the safety sometimes severely lacking in the models. Listen to the episode to hear Jon quantify this problem with real-world examples, why mere content warnings in LLM models don’t work, and the troubling results of the phishing requests.

    935: Global Issues Accelerated by AI (with Solutions), feat. Stephanie Hare
    Oct 28 2025
    Jon Krohn speaks to researcher, broadcaster and author Stephanie Hare about how the Hippocratic Oath might apply to artificial intelligence, and a guiding ethos for pushing innovation while protecting users from harm. A code of conduct, she says, could be one approach to ensuring that people are using technology more mindfully and ethically, as well as an opportunity for users to feel that they belong to a wider, global community. Although she sympathizes with people concerned by overregulation undermining innovation, Stephanie also notes that we expect certain standards to be met elsewhere, such as vehicle and drug safety, as well as fair journalistic practices. As Stephanie explains, we need to find a realistic middle ground between innovation and regulation. This episode is brought to you by the ⁠⁠Dell⁠⁠, by ⁠⁠Intel⁠⁠, by Fabi and by Gurobi⁠⁠⁠.

  • 934: Is AI Replacing Junior Workers?

    934: Is AI Replacing Junior Workers?
    Oct 24 2025
    With the number of jobs dramatically slowing in the last year, many question if this decline is down to companies turning to AI for completing entry-level tasks in particular. Research published earlier this month by Yale University shows no major difference in the types of roles and tasks in so-called `white-collar jobs` since late 2022, an auspicious date that coincides with the launch of ChatGPT. In this week‘s Five-Minute Friday, host Jon Krohn discusses if and when AI will undercut junior-level jobs, particularly in the US.
