Live Podcast: AI in the Boardroom – A New Frontier

Dan Byrne speaks with compliance, risk, and AI experts Jisha Dymond and Andrew McBride about the rise of AI and the issues it brings to the boardroom around risk, ethics, and rationality. 

Generative AI is undoubtedly one of the biggest innovations of this decade, and its use at the corporate leadership level will transform how boards and executives make decisions. 

That said, those leaders need to truly understand it so as not to fall into traps like embracing bias and creating unnecessary risk. Dan, Jisha and Andrew will explore it in-depth.

What You’ll Learn:

• Knowledge of the primary ways AI can amplify bias in the boardroom. 
• Understanding data foundations behind AI systems including the risks of inaccurate or biased data.
• The confidence to know when to trust AI and when you need more information.
• A solid foundation of ethical guardrails that govern leaders’ use of AI
• Practical questions board members can ask to assess whether management is governing AI responsibly
