  1. T6: AI & DATA IN ACTION
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    AI projects are on the rise, but many remain stuck at the pilot stage. Why do some initiatives move into production while others get bogged down? Drawing on real-world experiences, this session analyzes the organizational, technical, and regulatory barriers to scaling up. An unfiltered discussion on what does—and does not—contribute to the successful industrialization of AI.

  3. T6: AI & DATA IN ACTION
    • Bad data can ruin good AI
    AI promises to create value from data. But there is often a significant gap between available data and data that can actually be used. Quality, traceability, catalogs, governance: where does trust really come into play? This session explores why the value of AI depends first and foremost on the reliability of the data that feeds it.
  4. T6: AI & DATA IN ACTION
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    • Compliance underpins responsible use
    • Governance fosters trust at scale
    Between regulatory requirements, risk management, and the pursuit of value, AI governance can no longer remain a theoretical exercise. Many organizations, however, struggle to translate their principles into operational practices. How can we move from statements of intent to governance that is effective, measurable, and tailored to actual use cases? How can we define a framework robust enough to manage risks? What lessons can we learn from early implementations to build a governance … Read More

  6. T6: AI & DATA IN ACTION
    • Governance fosters trust at scale
    As AI systems become increasingly sophisticated at inferring emotional states and personalizing interactions, companies have been pursuing a clear goal: to increase user trust. But what happens when this goal becomes too successful? In this talk, we explore the concept of “overtrust” and how users’ psychological dependence creates new risk vectors that traditional IT metrics fail to capture. We examine how decision automation and subjective inference can gradually erode user autonomy, gen … Read More

    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    • Governance fosters trust at scale
    Deploying AI isn’t enough—you also need to know what it actually delivers. There can be a gap between the metrics highlighted in communications and the operational KPIs observed on the ground. Productivity gains, service quality, risk reduction, team adoption: what criteria can be used to assess the concrete impact of an AI project? A discussion focused on measurement, rather than hype.

  10. T6: AI & DATA IN ACTION
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    Investments in AI are skyrocketing, but their profitability remains difficult to measure over the long term. Beyond the promised productivity gains, companies must factor in costs that are often underestimated: infrastructure, monitoring, compliance, energy consumption, and carbon footprint. This roundtable discussion will examine what profitable AI truly means in the medium term, when technology decisions must also take into account their energy, financial, and environmental costs.
