Questions which has been discussed during the Drucker Forum between Amy Webb and Johannes Ceh. An inspiring dialogue driven through latest cases and giving clear advise what to do. - „Most of AI is really boring ... and mostly not visible“ „Human hands are much cheaper than robots“ - „If you just innovate without having a sense of what’s next, you probably gonna fail. On the other hand: If you only envision what’s next and you don’t take any actions, you gonna fail as well .. So you kind need to do both“! - „Just follow the pink line ... AI guiding pilots in planes“ - „Organic ecosystem (US) vs. Planned ecosystem (China) ... the best way for corporations is the Hybrid model in the middle. Developing norms but be flexible while moving on“ - „AI doing the thinking work and humans acting more like robots needed to do what the systems are saying (Amazon)“ - „Every company with a decent size should have a Chief Ethics Officer on their C-Suite! If your organisation cares a lot about people this should be the core part of what you do“ - „Help managers and leaders understand very specifically what AI doesn’t do and do, what it isn’t and why all of this matters ... That’s the best possible thing companies can do to help“ - „Rethink yourself! This requires confronting uncertainty and constantly asking yourself about your own believes“

    Artificial intelligence enables systems to make preliminary selections, categorize customer inquiries or determine who gets a loan, for example in application processes. It doesn't have to be bad. In the worst case, such systems can also have a massive impact on the everyday life of citizens, for example if governments use artificial intelligence to fully monitor and control their citizens. So how can. an ethical handling of artificial intelligence look and succeed? At the Next Conference https://nextconf.eu/ I met Professor Virginia Dignum from Delft University in the Netherlands, who gave a keynote there.

    Companies are confronted with new competitors and innovations faster and faster. Xavi Cortadellas and Miguel Machado from Digital Consulting Keenfolks explain how to deal constructively with this challenge It is an almost everyday situation in companies: new competitors and innovations appear on the market, or a great business opportunity.
