When we think of artificial intelligence, most of us only think of machines, robots, algorithms and automation. In her keynote speech, female speaker Dalith Steiger talks about how fundamental it is that we think far beyond that – namely about people. Artificial intelligence not only helps us to make our processes faster, more accurate and more efficient, but also to transform vast amounts of data into valuable information. In doing so, it helps us to find answers to pressing global questions and pave the way to a better future, both for the economy and for society.
Dalith Steiger’s vision: “When I think of AI, I think of people – how AI can support humanity.”
Dalith Steiger shows how C-level executives are challenged from many sides every day – whether by the board, management, a change in customer needs or a change in the business environment. What’s more, the changing technology landscape has the power to influence all of these factors. How the company reacts to this can depend very much on management at C-level. When looking at artificial intelligence, C-level executives must give it strategic importance because of its transformative power across the organization.
The global landscape – perspectives from society, politics, regulation and business
