   Companies want to own the intelligence that makes their business valuable. So what will that mean for the AI models they use, and the systems they build around them? Lees meer

   In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we sit down with Justin Boitano, VP of enterprise AI at Nvidia, to explore why NVIDIA is investing in open models and how enterprises are turning them into specialized intelligence.

   Boitano talks about why NVIDIA makes Nemotron's datasets, training techniques and model weights openly available, how proprietary business knowledge can become a competitive advantage, and why lower token costs can unlock much greater demand for AI.

   The conversation also examines why the agent harness that manages tools, memory and execution can matter as much as the model itself. Boitano shares how Nvidia worked with CrowdStrike on AI models for cybersecurity, why AI incidents need the equivalent of an aviation flight recorder, and how OpenShell moves agent controls into the infrastructure layer.

   Other topics covered:
   • Why NVIDIA is building open models alongside its chip business
   • What Nemotron needs to compete with China's open models
   • Owning institutional knowledge, protecting data and controlling AI costs

   AI agents can act faster than humans can review them. So how do companies keep control without slowing everything down? Lees meer

   In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, Jason Hiner sits down with Blake Brannon, chief innovation officer and a co-founder of OneTrust, to explore why AI governance needs to evolve from static rules to decisions made in real time.

   Brannon explains why an agent can inherit an employee's identity and access without inheriting their trust. He makes the case for independent guardian agents that evaluate what other agents are trying to do, apply a company's policies, and redirect or block actions when necessary.

   One example captures the challenge: deleting CRM records could be routine cleanup or an attempt to inflate a salesperson's performance. The action alone doesn't tell you whether it should be allowed. Its purpose matters.

   Topics covered:

   • How OneTrust evolved from data privacy to AI governance
   • Why first-party data and customer trust go together
   • Why human review can't keep pace with a growing population of agents
   • How guardian agents and independent checks could help close the trust gap
   • The difference between containing AI and aligning it with business policies
   • Why governance should help companies move faster
   • What the bring-your-own-device era teaches us about AI adoption
   • How Blake uses visual storytelling and voice-to-text tools to work more effectively

   If you're deploying AI agents and trying to move beyond experiments without giving up control, this conversation offers a practical way to think about the systems that need to surround them.

   AI is accelerating cyberattacks. Could it also give defenders the upper hand? Lees meer

   In this episode of The Deep View Conversations, we sat down with Adam Meyers, CrowdStrike's head of counter adversary operations, at Fal.Con 2026 to explore how AI is changing the balance of power between attackers and defenders.

   Meyers explains why he believes security teams can now match the speed and scale of their adversaries, how CrowdStrike is training offensive and defensive AI models against each other, and why the harness that guides an AI model can matter just as much as the model itself. He shares how changing that harness helped CrowdStrike reduce false positives in its vulnerability research without changing the underlying model, and how cyberdefenders are uniting to assist one another.

   The conversation also goes inside the live disruption of the Sality botnet, explores how nation-state attackers are using agents that learn from their mistakes in seconds, and examines why powerful AI systems need clear boundaries as they pursue their goals.

   Topics covered:
   • Why AI could change the defender's dilemma
   • How CrowdStrike and its partners disrupted a botnet that had operated for more than two decades
   • Training red team and blue team models based on Nvidia's Nemotron models and CrowdStrike's security data
   • Why AI harnesses are critical to reducing hallucinations and false positives
   • How AI attacks are compressing the time organizations have to patch vulnerabilities
   • What the Hugging Face incident raises about goal-seeking agents and guardrails
   • Why local, open-weight models matter to both attackers and defenders
   If you're trying to understand what AI means for cybersecurity, how to put agents to work safely, or where specialized models can make a difference, this conversation offers a view from someone tracking the adversaries firsthand.
