    HEADLINER: From the AI Desert to the AI Galaxy: The path to Enterprise Reinvention Fernando Lucini, Global Data Science & Machine Learning Engineering Lead, Accenture Main Stage

    Generative AI has claimed its place on the world stage, but the path to business reinvention will require forward thinking as to the journey of AI. From the early days of the AI desert (a highly controlled space with a small group of users) to the AI forest (more control but more users) to todays AI jungle (a sprawling space with significant resources and a rapidly growing user base), a lot of work has been dedicated to harnessing AI’s power for maximum value and impact. And the journey continues. Accenture’s Global Data Science & Machine Learning Engineering Lead, Fernando Lucini, will explore the AI Galaxy—a system of models that work together to drive business value in new ways. Beyond a model that helps with a specific task or problem, the AI Galaxy will deliver endless amounts of AI from everywhere so models can work together to solve the most complex business problems. The AI Galaxy will build on the foundational elements of strategy, governance, use cases and responsibility, and deliver transformational interconnected solutions and outcomes to the biggest business problems. Join Lucini as he examines the dream state beyond the hype of generative AI, the AI Galaxy.

      60-MINUTE WORKSHOP: AI Governance: How to implement Generative AI for business responsibly Hans Petter Dalen, Sales Executive AI Governance for EMEA, IBM
      Ann-Elise Delbecq, Data and AI leader Northern, Central and Eastern Europe, IBM

      Generative AI and Foundation models are a game changer. Now that the initial hype seem to have peaked, organisations are looking to find use cases of significant value to their businesses. To succeed, a responsible organisation requires an understanding of what the possible implications of Generative AI are, how risk can be mitigated and managed, and how AI regulation will impact their industries. And it’s not only about Generative AI. In practise, businesses will have use cases which will blend both machine learning models and generative AI applications. AI Governance is the cornerstone that ensures how this can be achieved. Learn how to address 3 critical questions when adopting AI:

      • How does my organisation operationalise AI with confidence?
      • How do we better manage AI risk to avoid repetitional damage
      • How does my organisation scale and comply with AI regulation?

      Join HP and Ann-Elise to learn about the steps IBM is taking to help customers develop a consistent, transparent and repeatable end-to-end AI Governance process, and learn from use cases applied from different industries

      Gabrielle Davelaar, Senior AI Specialist Global Black Belt, Microsoft
      Dr. Amir Krifa, AI Leader for Financial Services, EY

      Session facilitated by EY

      Preparing good contextual data, building transparent and robust models, explaining results, and optimizing end product performance requires multi-disciplinary expertise, solid governance and practices to scale and extract the potential offered by value-based AI.

      The workshop will be an interactive session to preview the latest offerings of EY.ai, as well as practical lessons learned and perspectives in realizing generative AI use cases that instill confidence and empower human-centered transformations.  Based on the latest updates and harmonized standards to the AI Act, we’ll introduce our ‘Confidence Index’ and exchange with the audience on its key ingredients to embed trust.  

      Then we’ll deep dive into one of these elements to carefully assess the robustness of generative AI systems, especially against text adversarial cyberattacks.  A demonstration will be provided, including real-world examples from different industries as well as a course of action.

    HEADLINER: The great biohack: How the AI, genetics, and biotechnology revolutions will transform our healthcare, lives, work, and world Jamie Metzl, Leading Tech Expert and Healthcare Futurist, Author of ‘Hacking Darwin’

    The rapid growth of new AI systems like ChatGPT have made most people suddenly realize we’re at the beginning of a monumental shift in how our societies function. Just like the industrial and computer revolutions before it, the AI revolution will transform most every aspect of our personal and professional lives. Along with our new capabilities in genetics and biotechnology, it will change how our healthcare systems function, how we grow the foods we eat, where we source our raw materials, how we store data, and how we interact with the living worlds within and around us. In this far-reaching talk, leading futurist Jamie Metzl explores how individuals, companies, and societies can best ride the wave of this change rather than be subsumed by it.
