By now, we know that AI learns patterns from data. We also know that machine learning helps AI recognize those patterns. But another question naturally follows: How does AI know what answer to give? The answer is prediction. How AI makes predictionsAI systems learn patterns from training data. Once they have learned those patterns, they…

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. Machine learning is actually a branch of AI. Understanding the relationship between the two helps make many AI concepts easier to understand. What is machine learning?Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that allows systems to learn from…

In the last post, we learned that AI identifies patterns in data to generate responses, make predictions, and perform tasks.That naturally leads to another question: Where do those patterns come from?The answer is training data. What training data meansTraining data is the information used to teach an AI system. Before an AI model can answer…

Lesson 1: Consistency compoundsOne comic does not seem like much. Neither does one blog post.But week after week, those small efforts become something bigger. One of the biggest lessons from Cyber With Debra has been learning the value of showing up consistently, even when progress feels slow. Lesson 2: Curiosity matters more than expertiseMany of…

After learning what artificial intelligence is, the next question is often: How does AI actually know what to say? When people interact with AI tools, it can sometimes feel like they are talking to something that thinks and reasons exactly like a human. AI can answer questions, write content, summarize information, and even carry on…

No security control is perfect on its own. People make mistakes. Emails get opened. Links get clicked. Credentials get exposed. That is why strong cybersecurity is not built around a single line of defense. In this week’s comic, someone clicks a phishing link before realizing the message was suspicious. The attacker gets the password, but…
