Ask the Expert: AI’s role in digital futures and sustainability
We are excited to announce a special Ask the Expert forum event, inspired by the insights and discussions from our 2024 global webinar series “IET President’s AI Roadshow: Shaping the Future of AI Ethics”.
This series, guided by Dr Gopichand Katragadda, our immediate past President, brought together experts from around the world to explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence.
From May to July 2024, participants from 18 countries engaged in nine webinars, delving into the development of real-time, context-sensitive AI solutions that empower industries to make intelligent, rapid decisions. The series also emphasised the ethical, responsible, and impactful application of AI across various fields. Read the output from the webinars in our summary document: Leading with Intelligence: AI’s Role in Digital Futures and Sustainability.
