The Future of Work with AI Demands Reorganization, Not Replacement
Keynote Speaker: Erik Brynjolfsson
More than half of the workforce will be impacted by emerging technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), but the future of work should be one of reorganization, not replacement. In this revealing presentation, Brynjolfsson explains that while new AI systems – especially generative AI programs like ChatGPT and DALL-E that create novel text and images – will have wide ranging impacts on every industry, mass layoffs shouldn’t be the result. He’ll show that reorganizing tasks over replacing human workers will need to be a priority since companies will still gain value from people with creative, interpersonal and problem-solving skills, which can lead to much more productivity. Leaders will gain a roadmap to optimal restructuring, allowing them to see emerging technology and digital transformation as an opportunity, not an obstacle.

Senior Fellow at the Stanford University Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence
Keynote #3 (Tues, 12/8, 8-9am)
The New Cyberthreat Landscape
Keynote Speaker: Rachel WilsonAs the types of cyberattacks and nature of the attackers has changed in the last 18 months, how should businesses be responding? Rachel Wilson brings her unique perspective as a former National Security Agency executive and current CISO for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management to bear on the question of how we can best defend ourselves against an increasingly hostile cyberenvironment.
