What if your company’s next board member is not a human?
It never sleeps, never forgets and can influence every decision the company makes.
An AI agent could challenge leaders, recommend actions, predict risks and influence the future of an entire organization. But if its decision fails, who takes responsibility: the board, the developer or the algorithm?
In this keynote, we will explore this possibility and go beyond the boardroom. We will also discuss how AI agents could become part of our daily lives and transform decision-making at the highest levels of business.
