This panel tackles the question: Is AI the solution to the burnout epidemic - or just another accelerant? As organisations rush to implement AI tools, this session explores how AI can reduce cognitive overload and optimise work, while also addressing the ethical, human, and data challenges that could exacerbate stress and fatigue if not handled responsibly.
How to start building your digital workforce to grow revenue, optimise costs and get ahead in the AI era.
Deepfake is no longer just a tech buzzword—it is a real and rising threat. AI-generated deepfakes are becoming increasingly sophisticated, targeting SMEs with scams that exploit trust and limited defences to devastating effect. These attacks can create realistic videos, mimic voices, and deceive even the most cautious, leading to financial loss and reputational harm. This talk uncovers how deepfake fraud operates, why SMEs are particularly vulnerable, and the real-world consequences it poses. Most importantly, it provides practical tools and actionable insights to recognise and defend against these deceptive tactics. Walk away equipped to spot deepfakes before they cost your business and learn how to stay one step ahead of fraudsters in the AI-driven world.

Key Takeaways: • Responsible AI Use: Learn to use Gen AI responsibly in alignment with your company values • Inclusive Prompt Crafting: Build skills to shape prompts that generate inclusive, relevant outputs • Bias Detection: Identify common patterns of bias in AI outputs and know when to intervene.
