Description


Doors open at 11:30 and presentations start promptly at Noon. 

Are you curious about how AI can transform your business and career? 

Join us at the VIATEC AI Meetup, where local thought leaders and innovators come together to explore the cutting edge of artificial intelligence and its practical applications. 

Join us for this session as Mike Anderson, CEO of IntLabs presents and leads discussion on: 

AI and Data Privacy: Navigating the New Landscape

As generative and agentic AI systems become more autonomous, they are also becoming more entangled with sensitive data. This session will explore how emerging AI capabilities intersect with existing data privacy legislation, ethical expectations, and the need for organizational transparency. 

We will examine how AI-driven data collection, storage, and analysis are evolving, and where privacy risks may be intensifying. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of both the technical and ethical dimensions of data handling in AI systems, as well as practical guidance on how to build user trust while remaining compliant and responsible. 

Whether you're a technologist, business leader, or policy-minded professional, this session will help you better understand the privacy landscape and your role in shaping it responsibly.

Feel free to grab a bite at the Fort Cafe, located on site.
