    What information do you need to make a decision for yourself?

    (for reference, I’m not doing anything special. Enjoying life, connections with people, travel, reading, normal stuff)

      Good question.

      I'm trying to assess whether I've missed some news or information that objectively highlights risk.

      My current (squishy) risk calculus is taking into account my following observations and information:

      1. AI's advancements are impressive on both offensive and defensive capabilities.

      2. Intel I have from insiders of large corporations is that there's a rush right now to shore up security posture (with AI being used as a boost).

      3. Attacks on grids and utilities aren't new (though the "battleground" is changing with AI)

      This leads me to my assessment that things are as "okay" as they've ever been, just with different variables in the mix, and I'm not any more or less worried about it than I've ever been.

      Hence my original question: am I missing something or is this just folks getting riled up by news cycles?
