Session: Making Sense of AI Regulations - Minimize Risks, Leverage Benefits

The race is on to regulate AI around the globe, with draft legislation existing in 78 countries across six continents. It's not a matter of if AI will be regulated, but when, and it's critical for any companies using AI, whether developing or licensing the technology, to adhere to these frameworks now to future-proof their business and ensure AI is amazing. This can be a daunting task, but the roadmap is laid out within these existing frameworks. Dominique will walk attendees through the key steps to implementing trustworthy and ethical AI that will minimize risks and optimize outcomes.


Key Takeaways

  • There is great opportunity for AI to change our lives for the better as long as it’s built and deployed in a way that is safe and trustworthy
  • The hard work has already been done for CEOs and Board Members in existing trustworthy AI legal frameworks that outlines how to use this technology safely
  • Dominique's new book, Trust, provides an easy to follow roadmap for how to build AI systems according to existing legislation, ‘future proof’ your company and become a leader in data stewardship
  • CEOs and Board Members should follow these suggested frameworks now, because if they wait until they become law, it will be too late
  • Building trustworthy AI can be broken down into five key steps
