Data Strategy for Trustworthy AI: from Vision to Implementation
Ann-Elise Delbecq, Data Science Sales Leader | IBM (BE)
Artificial intelligence raises great hopes, allowing us to make decisions faster and more objectively than human judgments alone. While it keeps the promise of competitiveness, it also has a dark side, that of unwanted biases. AI is dependent on the social and cultural context of its designers and the data that feeds them. For that reason, a comprehensive approach to scaling AI, integrating Design, Ethics, Data Science, Architecture, and Engineering, is grounded around 3 Ethical principles. These 3 principles will be introduced in a round table discussion with Ann-Elise. She will share her experience with customers regarding trustworthy data and AI globally and will home in on how the EU AI act makes companies undertake actions now.
