Event description
🛡️ Hack, Defend, Repeat: AI's New Battleground
Date: TBC – aiming for August 1st, 2025
Location: Stone & Chalk, Melbourne (TBC)
Presented by: MLAI
Join us for a night exploring the cutting edge (and sometimes terrifying) intersection of AI and cybersecurity. From prompt injection to social engineering, from defensive automation to AI-enabled attacks — we’re bringing together industry experts, researchers, and hackers (the good kind) to unpack how AI is reshaping the digital battlefield.
Expect hands-on demos, practical insights, and real talk about where things are headed — and how to build, defend, and stay human in the loop.
There’ll be a talk, a panel, a few surprises, and time to network over drinks and dinner with Melbourne’s AI and cybersecurity communities.
