Mark your calendar! Our very special guest panelists will help us better understand and reflect on several critical questions, including:

  • How will some of the emerging technology disruptions drive business evolution and employment opportunities, particularly in the health and education sectors?
  • What are the opportunities and threats that AI represents for Mexico and other nations in the Americas?
  • How is AI impacting the field of education for our students, schools and teachers? What are some of the safeguards that schools must take? Are we getting a handle on it? How are schools and institutions of higher knowledge responding to the challenges?
  • What are the opportunities and threats for healthcare? What are some of the most important developments we’re already seeing and foreseeing? What must we do to mitigate the risks?
  • Will AI ultimately help us advance environmental causes or will it simply add to the problems?
  • Can AI contribute to a more equitable and just society, or will it instead exacerbate societal inequities and structural injustices?
