Infusing trust in AI

Virtual Meet-up – Tuesday 29th March at 4pm

For AI to transform our work and improve our lives, the data and insights we use must be trustworthy and explainable.

Join two of our incredible champions of Trust in AI, Beth and Phaedra, as they challenge us to think about our world differently and how we can answer some of the big questions: What exactly does infusing trust in AI mean, and what can we do about it?

This talk will introduce listeners to how we can trust and scale the value of AI. Through personal storytelling and real-life examples, it will bring key themes such as bias and subjectivity to life, along with the role we can play in the process.
