Generative AI in 2024 – Communicating the Threats and Opportunities
Hosted by Hewlett Packard Enterprise | Digital Realty
As 2024 gets underway, it’s clear that executives want to move beyond an experimentation phase with AI across the business. The potential for AI is clear, and CIOs must ensure they are driving the narrative for the AI strategy, ensuring effective data workflows and managing the risks in a sustainable way. As the technology continues to disrupt ways of working, and deployments are taking place across the business, CIOs must gather the use cases that demonstrate its ability to increase revenue, fuel data-driven insights and contribute towards organisation goals, like sustainability targets and business growth.
Join this Town Hall to discuss:
- Keeping control of the AI conversation at the board, focusing on business metrics, reduced costs and improved productivity
- Using Generative AI as an enabler of organisational goals, like sustainability and data, through data analysis and modernisation
- Managing and communicating the risks associated with deploying AI, sustainably, by managing data workflows between public and private deployments
