What once appeared impossible becomes seemingly inevitable. Artificial Intelligence offers such promise. Much like technological revolutions of the past\, this promise of new capability must be balanced against uncertainty and unintended consequences. Safeguards must be put in place. The requirement to ensure there is always a “human in the loop” represents one such safeguard to mitigate the risk of the unintentional or the unknown. However\, humans aren’t simply “in the loop” – they are the loop. The session will explore how re-focusing on the human loop of understanding information will drive the use (and prevent the misuse) of AI as the technology continues to evolve. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n James Donlon\n Senior Director\, Solution Engineering\, Oracle \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n }\n \n 1:48 PM\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Emerging Technology Talk\nAssessing Cyber Recovery Preparedness\nIn this tech talk\, Rubrik will challenge federal healthcare agencies to assess their true preparedness for recovering from a cyber attack.
