Join us to explore the real world of Artificial Intelligence with Entrepreneur and Investor Josh Comrie. He'll avoid the hype, going into the opportunities, perils and pitfalls of living in an evolving AI world.

As artificial intelligence is becoming ever-present in our everyday lives, it can often be misconstrued as confusing and frightening technology that is here to create obsolescence in our human lives. Join successful entrepreneur and investor; a founder and the CEO of Ambit, Josh Comrie, in demystifying the world of AI. He will stay away from the technical jargon and stick to consumer and business advancements; asking "what does it mean for us?"

Josh will be hosting a varied, fast-paced session that will help businesses understand the importance of AI in business and how to approach things. Highlighting some of the ways AI has already changed the world we live in and what advancements are yet to come, you will leave this session with a greater understanding of AI and some context to move on with.

Key Takeaways:

Insight into the history and origins of AI
Some real-life examples of where it's in use today
How its potentially going to impact upon the future (bearing in mind the past)
How to get more involved as a person, and as a business
