The energy and talent on display at the recent 2025 Cyber Explorers Cup was truly inspiring. Seeing thousands of young minds across the UK engage with cyber security challenges underscores the immense potential of our future workforce. Congratulations to the winners from Highgate School (England), Our Lady's Grammar School School (Northern Ireland), Jordanhill School (Scotland), Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Llangynwyd (Wales), and Zenith (Home school) for their impressive achievements. This UK-Government backed initiative, which we work on behalf of, is vital in equipping 11-to-14-year-olds with essential digital skills. Nurturing this talent early is crucial for building a robust cyber security landscape in the years to come. We commend all participants for showcasing their emerging abilities and look forward to seeing how programmes like Cyber Explorers continue to cultivate the next generation of cyber security professionals.

AI is shifting what’s possible, not just for businesses, but for the people who power them.   Many employees are ready for more — more growth, more purpose, and more opportunity to evolve with the work they do.   That’s where forward-thinking organisations are stepping up, and we help make that possible.   Our AI apprenticeships equip people with the skills to build, lead, and adapt, through hands-on training grounded in the real world.   AI isn’t the end of human potential. It’s the beginning of what’s next. Learn more about our AI apprenticeships: https://lnkd.in/eSY3JJth   #AI #Apprenticeships #FutureSkills

🚨 Are fine-tuned AI models "forgetting" their safety filters? Dr. Vicky Crockett's latest blog explores a disturbing trend: how even small tweaks to generative AI models can lead to 'emergent misalignment' — and outputs that range from subtly biased to outright dangerous. From misogynistic assumptions to glorifying war criminals, this is a must-read for anyone working with AI. 🔍 What does this mean for businesses fine-tuning models for their own tools? 🧠 Are we introducing risk without realising it? 👇 Dive into the findings and what they mean for AI safety and governance: 🔗 https://bit.ly/4cL7ZuR #GenerativeAI #AISafety #AIBias #MachineLearning #PromptEngineering
