Yesterday, at Microsoft Reactor Toronto, Olia Stasiuk, CEO of Bonzai AI, had the incredible opportunity to push the boundaries of imagination on what’s possible with AI and how the technology has evolved over the past two years.
As AI rapidly advances, navigating the unknown is both exciting and challenging—not only in terms of innovation but also in protecting these advancements from those who might misuse them. This was a key theme in the AI & Cybersecurity panel discussion, where Olia and fellow panelists explored emerging threats, deep fakes, and ethical AI use.

A Special Thanks to the Community & Panelists
It was an honor for Olia Stasiuk to be part of an all-female panel alongside Katherine Isaac and Margaryta Ostapchuk, discussing real-world cybersecurity threats, from voice and video cloning to deep fakes—and most importantly, the human decisions that shape AI’s ethical use.
Huge appreciation to Khrystyna Penyk and Eli Costea, co-founders of Eastern-Europeans in Tech!, for building such a strong community and organizing this fantastic event. It’s inspiring to see leaders fostering meaningful conversations at the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, and innovation.

Key Takeaways:
🔹 AI security isn’t just about tech—it’s about awareness and responsibility
🔹 Deep fakes, cloned voices, and video manipulation are real threats to watch for
🔹 You don’t need to be a technical founder to understand cybersecurity—you just need a willingness to learn
More insights from Olia Stasiuk and the panel discussion coming later this week!
