THE FUTURE IS HERE

AI & Ethics, a panel discussion

A panel discussion with Dalith Steiger (Swiss Cognitive), and Sophie Achermann (Allianz F).

Our panel will have a closer look at how ethics may vary from culture to culture, how business and tech need to talk and work closely together to define the very standards of their work. We will have a closer look at the questions companies now have to answer and of course, we will also figure out how artificial intelligence can be used not only to follow ethical guidelines but also to guide us to more ethical thinking.
