Since their inception, the CDAO events have brought together leaders who share a common passion - and with that common challenges. Through our think tanks, roundtables and VIP lunch panels, senior executives are able to explore how to tackle the latest challenges of the digital era. 

The pace of change is phenomenal. Keeping up with the changes and developments across technology, legislation, ethical considerations et al requires collaboration. 

Bringing together the most advanced data and analytics leaders from Australia and overseas, CDAO Melbourne will host an exceptional speaker line-up. Make sure you are amongst these leading minds so that you can discover what it takes to be a market disruptor.

Ethics of AI – are you ready? Addressing the toughest ethical dilemmas companies have ever faced.

corinium_ethics-of-ai_cover

We’re just at the starting line of AI and already CDAOs are grappling with ethical dilemmas that create risk at all organisational levels. Poor AI governance can lead to significant reputational, market and financial risk. CDAOs will need to educate and work with boards and senior executives to develop new governance methods in a rapidly expanding risk universe. 

We took a deep dive into the issue and reached our network of senior data science leaders to share their views on:

  • Who do we trust?
  • Why are we blaming AIs?
  • Will explainable AI reveal some ugly truths?
  • How can we govern in an automated environment?
  • Who should sit on an Ethical AI Committee?
  • What assurances do consumers need to trust machines to be fair?
  • 5 steps to building an AI Privacy and Ethics framework
