Delivered by experts from the United Nations International Computing Centre (UNICC).
Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way organizations innovate, make decisions, and create value. This session will address AI from two complementary perspectives: its potential to drive positive social impact and the importance of identifying and mitigating biases that can affect AI systems. Through practical examples, we will explore opportunities, challenges, and best practices for the responsible use of this technology.
UNICC, the United Nations digital services center based in Quart de Poblet, will bring together experts who will share their practical experience and best practices for harnessing the potential of artificial intelligence in a responsible and people-centered manner across various contexts and sectors.
