Outdated Databases and AI: A Recipe for Digital Disaster or Innovation?
“Databases, the unsung heroes of the tech world, are ignored like spoiled milk in the fridge. Meanwhile, Meta’s AI diet just got a European makeover. Both tales spotlight the need for better digital hygiene. Sound the klaxons!”
Hot Take:
When your databases are older than your grandmother’s fruitcake recipe, it’s time to sound the alarms. Meta’s AI drama might be the hot gossip, but let’s not forget: outdated SQL Servers are the cyber equivalent of leaving the milk out on a summer day. Spoiler alert: both stink.
Key Points:
- Meta must stop using European social media data for AI training, thanks to privacy rulings.
- 20% of Microsoft SQL Server instances are past their end-of-life support.
- Databases are crucial but often overlooked in cybersecurity discussions.
- Food safety regulations provide a model for managing software and data risks.
- Outdated software should be treated like expired food: a health hazard.
