Fostering Responsible Trustworthy AI in Healthcare

With the increasingly widespread use of powerful data technologies, the importance of responsible innovation has never been greater. AI has undeniably proven its potential in optimizing processes and improving decision-making and patient outcomes. However, its adoption may lead to several concerns such as lack of transparency, unintended bias, and the need to stay compliant with new and emerging legal requirements.

Join us for an exclusive happy hour with featured speaker, Reggie Townsend, who leads the Data Ethics Practice at SAS. Reggie will cover:

• How to spot AI bias before it becomes a problem
• Using data to increase inclusivity and equity
• How analytics can help organizations meet their sustainability goals

Following Reggie's speech, we will welcome a panel of local experts to weigh in on how AI is currently being used in BC and what the future of responsible AI in healthcare could look like in our province.

After the event, attendees are welcome to stay for a happy hour networking social where drinks and light appetizers will be provided. We hope to see you there as we cover this important topic and leverage technology to support programs for better health outcomes of all British Columbians.
