Interview with Falaah Arif Khan – talking security, comics and demystifying the hype surrounding AI

Falaah Arif Khan is the creator of "Meet AI" – a scientific comic strip about the human-AI story. She currently works as a Research Engineer at Dell EMC, Bangalore, but will shortly will be heading to New York University's Center for Data Science to pursue a Master's in Data Science. We talked about some of the machine learning projects she's worked on, her comic book creations, and the need for clear and accurate communication in the field of AI. I like to describe my research area as meta-security. When customers come to us it is to enhance the security of their product through access management, service authorization, session management and/or authentication. My role within the team is to use data-driven insights to build features that will bolster the security of our Identity and Access Management (IAM) product.
