Removing The Confusion On Your AI Journey (November CEO Lunch Roundtable)
Wednesday, November 13, 2024 (12:00 PM - 1:30 PM) (PST)
Description
AI is quickly becoming a necessity for the future of effective business, no matter the industry or sector an organization operates in. Yet the when, how, and why to use AI still largely remains a mystery. Although there is ample promise for transformative growth in using AI, it is blocked by the confusion on where to start and the fear of getting it wrong.
Join us at VIATEC for an engaging event where you'll gain valuable insights and strategies to confidently embark on your AI journey.
You’ll hear from industry experts at the Ethical Intelligence Network, who will share their insights on responsible AI practices. They will address how you select your first AI pilot project? When is the right time to start building your AI team? What training is essential for both executives and AI team members? And point out key elements in a successful AI journey.
