AI is a powerful technology for SMEs, and levels the playing field with much larger businesses. Yet, as technology moves faster than the law, and with 83% of leaders reportedly feeling ‘morally uncomfortable’ about the use of data in their organisation, there are ethical considerations for which every business must take responsibility. In this session Natalie Cramp will discuss how to create value from AI in your organisation, but what the considerations are for SMEs as they look to maximise the impact of this technology. She will offer takeaways which you can put into action in your organisation to accelerate potential and mitigate risk.
