    • 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.

    • Bad data can ruin good AI
    Companies are investing heavily in data and AI to produce increasingly reliable analyses and increasingly relevant recommendations. However, even the best recommendations are worthless if they are not understood, accepted, or used properly. In the age of AI, the challenge is therefore no longer simply to produce accurate data or a high-performing model. It is to transform this intelligence into a true driver of decision-making, communication, and creativity … Read More

    • 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.

    • Bad data can ruin good AI
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    A thousand suppliers, a thousand formats. Vendor catalogs on a marketplace, supplier files, and data exports from partners onboarding to your platform. When data comes from outside sources, we tend to ask our partners to conform to our format. They rarely do. Entire teams are dedicated to integrating this data into our systems—a cost that can be significantly reduced with AI.  Stéphane Jauffret, former head of Amazon’s marketplace and co-founder … Read More

    • 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

    Before helping our clients with this, we decided to start by implementing agent-based AI within our own organization. From cross-functional roles to 100% tech-focused positions, we tested, failed, and started over—ultimately developing a robust methodology that was proven first within our own company and then with our clients. From cross-functional roles to 100% tech-focused teams, we tested, broke things, and started over, ultimately developing a solid, proven method that we then rolled out to our clients. In this talk, we’ll share what worked… Read More

    • 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

    • Bad data can ruin good AI
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    • Governance fosters trust at scale
    By 2026, fewer than one in three organizations had succeeded in integrating AI into their teams’ daily work. The tools are now widely available and often deployed, but embedding their use remains the main challenge. How can we move from simply deploying tools to ensuring that AI is actually used by everyone, every day? During this session, Mendo will present its approach to making AI a natural part of daily life, based on four key drivers: the combination of people and technology, the … Read More

    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    In a business intelligence (BI) project, it’s not the dashboard that costs the most, but everything that comes before it. Connecting data sources, understanding tables, identifying keys and relationships, and then building the data model: this work takes weeks and requires experts. SEIKAI, in collaboration with LIS (CNRS) and AMSE, is conducting an R&D program to automate this process. Deterministic algorithms (key detection, Levenshtein distance, entropy, etc.) calculate … Read More

    • 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.
