Hello 50:50 World in Zurich: Who is afraid of AI?
About this event
Hello 50:50 World October Meetup with Networking, Drinks & Apéro
What? Who Is Afraid of AI? – Living and Working Well with AI.
Who? Romano Roth, Group Chief AI Officer at Zühlke
Hosted by Hello 50:50 World in collaboration with Zühlke
Have you ever wondered how much we should really trust AI – and where we still need to stay in the driver’s seat?
AI is becoming part of how we work, make decisions and build technology. It brings enormous opportunities – but also questions, uncertainty and sometimes fear. Which concerns are justified? What can AI really do today? And how can we live and work well with AI without giving up human judgment, responsibility and accountability?
At our October Hello 50:50 World Meetup in Schlieren, kindly hosted by Zühlke, we’ll move beyond both the AI hype and the fear and explore these questions together with Romano Roth, Group Chief AI Officer at Zühlke.
Together, we’ll explore questions such as:
- Between hype and fear: Which concerns around AI are justified – and
which are exaggerated? - What can AI really do today – where does it genuinely help, and where are
its limitations and risks? - How is AI changing the way we work – and which roles, tasks and ways of
working are evolving? - Human + AI: What does responsible collaboration look like without giving
up judgment, control and accountability? - How can we use AI consciously and sustainably – and actively shape the
future we want?
This won’t just be a talk about AI. Bring your questions, experiences and perspective – the conversation is part of the meetup.
And afterwards, feel free to stay for drinks, apéro and more conversation.
