Event Highlights:
AI is everywhere. It promises solutions to everything from precision agriculture to next-generation app development. But is it truly the answer to every problem? In this fireside chat, our panellists take a critical look at the growing belief that AI can crack even the toughest challenges. We’ll unpack the realities behind the hype, the unspoken trade-offs, and the inherent tensions that arise when the cutting-edge is applied to complex domains like climate innovation. From the promise of breakthroughs to the risks of eroding our traditional notions of IP and data ownership, we explore the hard truths and hopeful prospects of a world where every problem seems solvable at a cost. Join us as we navigate these difficult bargains and ask: How do we pursue progress without losing sight of what matters?
