Responsible AI Summit 2024 Workshops

8:30 am - 9:00 am Registration & Breakfast

9:00 am - 10:30 am Workshop A: Empowering Ethical Leadership: Designing Responsible AI Strategies for Business Success

Olivia Gambelin - Founder, Ethical Intelligence

As advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) rapidly change the way we do business, executives are expected to not only keep up with developments but also lead teams through the build and adoption of these cutting-edge tools. One of the consequential challenges leaders face when it comes to embracing AI is how to do so responsibly and based on human values. While many Responsible AI discussions and workshops focus on the technical aspects of AI, the “Responsible AI by Design” program is instead taking a novel approach to empowering leaders in realizing the full potential of AI through a workshop centered on design thinking and ethical critical thought. In this workshop you will learn how to design your own holistic Responsible AI strategy, identify critical impact points for success, and establish the necessary channels for solutions to translate ethical values into practice. If you want to unlcok the full potential of AI responsibly but don’t know where to start, this workshop is for you.
