Beyond the AI Hype: Operational Readiness, Governance and Real-World Adoption

As organisations race to adopt AI, many are still working through what is useful, what operational foundations need to be in place, and how governance can realistically work in practice. 

This session explores a pragmatic perspective on Applied AI through three key lenses: identifying meaningful opportunities beyond the hype, preparing organisations for operational adoption, and embedding governance and human oversight into AI-enabled workflows. 

Using real-world examples and lessons learned, the discussion focuses on what it takes to apply AI responsibly inside complex business environments.
