IBM built a voice assistant for cybersecurity

In this week's This Feels A Little Like Skynet: IBM built a new voice assistant using artificial intelligence called Hayvn, focused on cybersecurity. Think of it as Amazon Alexa, but instead of ordering soap, it's helping you manage threats. Sure, this might sound like it's ripped straight out of the plot for Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, in which the military unleashes a new AI called Skynet to fight a virus that's been disrupting worldwide networks. And yes, that AI then becomes sentient, launches nukes and begins "Judgement Day." Here in the real world, IBM said Hayvn is being used to help cybersecurity pros comb through the hundreds of alerts they receive each day.
