AI for Ambitious and Responsible Innovation in Business (Conference offered in French)

In this conference, Olivier Blais, co-founder and VP of Decision Science at Moov AI, will address the major business issues related to artificial intelligence. While many VPs are asking, “Are we using AI tools ethically and responsibly without putting our company at risk?” Olivier will provide practical answers on how to use generative AI safely and in compliance with standards. The focus will be on the importance of regulating AI use within companies. Olivier will explain how the executive team, VPs, and directors can establish guidelines to ensure compliant and secure use throughout the organization. He will also discuss the risks associated with “Shadow AI” (the uncontrolled use of AI tools) and the decisions to be made, such as selecting appropriate tools or blocking certain ones. Finally, this conference aims to stimulate the thinking of the leaders present, providing them with insights to develop a robust AI policy and identify potential blind spots. It is a unique opportunity to explore how to balance innovation with responsibility in a business context.
