Building AI is the weekly podcast for leaders securing and governing the future of AI infrastructure, without the fluff.

Hosted by David Yacov, the show explores the real-world challenges of building secure, compliant, and trustworthy AI systems at scale: from privacy-preserving synthetic data and MLOps security to AI governance, regulatory compliance, and infrastructure risk management.

Each episode features deep conversations with CISOs securing AI deployments at scale, security engineers building privacy-first AI architectures, AI researchers defining secure AI systems, policy experts shaping AI governance frameworks, privacy lawyers navigating regulatory landscapes, and technical founders implementing trustworthy AI infrastructure.

Who's it for? If you're responsible for AI security, compliance, governance, or infrastructure, this podcast is your guide to protecting AI systems and staying ahead of emerging threats.

Why I started it: Too many AI conversations ignore the security, governance, and compliance realities of AI deployment. I wanted a space where security-minded builders, researchers, and policy experts can speak openly about what's breaking, what's working, and what's coming next in AI infrastructure protection.
