Behind the Hype: Questioning Al's "Smart" Decisions

Al models promise accuracy and automation-but can we really trust them? This talk dives into the hidden flaws behind Al performance: biased data, misleading metrics, and black-box predictions. Learn how to spot the cracks, ask smarter questions, and become a sharper, data-skeptical thinker in an Al-driven world.

Session will take place 4-5pm, followed by networking 5-6pm. Refreshments will be provided.

Meetups are hosted the third Wednesday of each month at Union Hall in OTR and feature subject matter experts and enthusiasts in the fields of data and analytics.
