Description

Technological innovation in recent years has made computers, robots, and software so sophisticated that machines are now entering the realm once thought to belong exclusively to humans: cognition. Computers today can recognize patterns and generate insights being used for fraud detection, medical diagnostics, legal research, and auditing, among others. Artificial intelligence algorithms can process thousands more documents – and then act faster – than any human and are free from human biases. Their productivity also need not be interrupted by rest breaks or lapses of concentration. The new technological revolution will create tremendous societal benefits – the creation of new goods, services, markets and jobs, greater productivity.

How as a professional of any description can you prepare for this? how do you capitalize on this as an opportunity, not a threat? what role should government play?

In this discussion we will explores some of these subjects with experts in AI from IBM, Centiment and those very involved with the preparing new york for these challenges from a political and social perspective, providing practical solutions on how you as a professional can prepare for these challenges through training and a discussion of policy and technology.
