Date: December 11, 2019

The world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly growing and it’s important to be aware.
In this webinar, Alex explores the most pressing AI and data battles taking place, while bringing to life some of the important real-world scenarios we too often ignore either as corporate citizens or everyday individuals.
From companies making decisions without human intervention to certain governments controlling ISO standards processes on AI, Alex will draw from his personal experience developing the world’s first Algorithmic Impact Assessment tool to show how we can reduce risk and move forward.
In this presentation, you will learn:
- What AI is and how it affects the modern workplace.
- How your organizations can better prepare for the algorithmic conflicts to come.
- How to choose ethical technology suppliers.
- The role corporate values play in automation.
- How to cut through the hype in order to focus on real concrete digital actions your institution should be most concerned about getting right.
