Link: Serverless Architectures: A Paradigm Shift in ...

“One of the biggest security upsides to developing on serverless architectures is that organizations don’t have to deal with the daunting task of having to constantly apply security patches for the underlying operating system. These tasks are now in the domain of the serverless architecture provider.” The rest - the application code - still needs to be secure. Of course.

Given all the Facebook stuff, I think less balancing towards the side of the robots would probably probably be good: ‘A recent study advocating a U.S. strategy for developing machine intelligence also noted the potential barriers to development that include GDPR and other data privacy efforts. The study released by the Center for Strategic and International Studies warned that the shift to “data localization” will require “balancing legitimate concerns around privacy and consumer protection both in the United States and abroad with the need for an open, flexible data ecosystem that supports innovation and experimentation in AI.
