How many hours did you spend on social media today? Have you sent an AI note-taker to a meeting instead of attending? According to Armon Dadgar, co-founder and CTO of HashiCorp, the answers to these questions and how people approach technology -- especially social media and AI -- will determine whether we face dystopia or a healthy society. In this candid conversation, Dadgar shares his concerns about the risks of AI, including overreliance on convenience and the importance of having clear intentions with technical tools rather than following the latest buzzwords. Featuring: Armon Dadgar, co-founder and CTO, HashiCorp In todayâs episode, weâll cover⌠The "Wall-E economy": Is social media the new cigarettes? The pitfalls of "frictionless addiction" in business Similarities between cloud and AI adoption trends Dadgar's best-case scenario for the future of tech And more!

Open Source Security welcomes Josh Corman to talk about the challenges around securing our critical infrastructure. Specifically the discussion centers around our water supplies. There are a lot of really wild things happening right now with attacks like Volt Typhoon and Salt Typhoon. Josh has an amazing ability to make these sort of discussions easy to understand without spreading FUD. Josh also has suggestions for actions that need to be taken to help deal with these problems. It's not all technical solutions, there are non technical things we can do to help reduce the risk posed by our technical systems failing.

Josh welcomes Mo Duffy from Red Hat to chat about project Lightwell. The idea is to leverage the resources and understanding Red Hat has built up over the years to help deal with the deluge of vulnerability reports that are overwhelming open source projects. Mo does a really good job of explaining why this is fundamentally a people problem, not a technology problem. But it's a people problem we can probably use technology to help. It will be interesting to see where Lightwell goes in the next few years. The show notes and blog post for this episode can be found at https://opensourcesecurity.io/2026/2026-07-lightwell-mo-duffy
