DELIVERY FORMAT
Online Virtual
SEMINAR TYPE
PD Seminar
NEW SEMINAR

Overview

Quietly, AI has already transformed how we work. These tools offer real opportunity, but they also raise fundamental questions. Is using AI ethical? Is it right? Is not using AI ethical? What happens when employees resist AI? How do we maintain trust and transparency in tools we don’t fully understand? And how do we train and deploy AI ethically, without slowing innovation to a crawl? This seminar explores the ethical and organizational challenges of living (and working) in an AI world, with a focus on empowerment, clarity, and responsible implementation. We’ll discuss how to deploy and train AI responsibly, avoid bias, and monitor for hallucinations. We’ll also look at how to engage teams in the process and help people understand the proper use of AI. The goal is to make better use of these powerful tools, in a sustainable and ethical way.
