Last month, AltaML Co-CEO Nicole Janssen was part of a panel in Toronto addressing the challenges and opportunities of AI. A key focus was on business leaders tackling AI strategy now, rather than waiting. "Don't ask the question, 'What am I going to do with AI?' but, 'What am I going to do with AI by the end of the year?'" said Janssen at the Tech Horizons Executive Forum.

The first panel of #ASCConnect2024 features Dr. Ryan Clements leading Carole Piovesan, Chad Langager and Martin Petrin in a discussion of the regulatory implications of artificial intelligence on capital markets. Among other things, it breaks down the risk-benefit analysis of AI in finance. Potential/benefits: research (particularly re: risk assessment), automation (particularly of low-value items, to allow more time and effort toward high-value tasks), customizations, and more accuracy/less risk of human error. Risks:  inaccurate data inputs, outdated data, explainability (more explainability = less performance), cyber security, and systemic risk (particularly when data is provided only from a small group of players).

ICYMI: Co-CEO Cory Janssen appeared on CTV News Edmonton to address how artificial intelligence will impact the workforce, specifically here in Alberta. "We need to build software, we need to build the intellectual property, the IP, we need to build it so it stays in Alberta and in Canadian hands."

Starting with a clear business problem 2. Identifying where AI can make a meaningful impact 3.
