Protect Against AI Ghosts

It's Halloween, and the real scare isn't a costumed monster... it's the potential for generative AI to turn you and your team into empty shells! AI promises ultimate efficiency, but in this virtual event we'll unmask the real-life risks of rushed adoption, where essential human qualities like agency, curation, security, and trust can be inadvertently sacrificed. You'll walk away with an understanding of how AI implementation can be a life-saver, not a ghost-maker. We'll discuss how these principles apply to your projects, customers, and organizations.

Topics:
• Where AI fits—and where it doesn’t
• Common AI pitfalls
• AI do’s and don’ts
• AI Customer Success application and lessons learned
