Overview

The latest Deloitte report on Artificial Intelligence has highlighted that less than one in ten organisations across Asia Pacific, including New Zealand, have the necessary governance structures to ensure trustworthy AI.

In this Director Dialogue session you are invited to a discussion led by Deloitte experts Julene Marr and Everett Toews, which will highlight the importance of robust AI governance, identify four key high-impact actions that organisations can take to improve their AI governance, and briefly touch on some of the latest innovations and how they can be used on both a small and large scale.
