Febna once spent an entire evening arguing with an AI chatbot just to prove that machines can be confidently wrong. The debate ended with no clear winner, but it did spark her curiosity for the fascinating world of artificial intelligence. Today, she works at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, helping build smarter systems while making sure they don’t become too smart for their own good.
