Steven Millers Dialogue Session
2023-07-17 18:30 - 21:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Red Hat, 88 Market Street Level 45 CapitaSpring, 048948, Singapore
Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful, widely applicable, and transformative technology, already beginning to revolutionise industries and redefine human interactions. As we navigate this rapidly changing landscape, it becomes essential to understand how we can co-exist harmoniously in this hybridised world of human and machine intelligence, where AI and other dynamic forces are integral parts of our existence and driving new and constantly evolving possibilities and equilibria.
To help ground us in this new reality and navigate forward, Steven Miller, Professor Emeritus of Information Systems at the School of Computing and Information Systems, Singapore Management University (SMU), will lead you through insight-generating interaction based on the following four basic yet essential questions:

What do we even mean by intelligence, human or machine?
How do we deal with the duality that Machine Intelligence is – and will continue to be – far superior to human intelligence in a growing number of ways, yet far inferior in so many other ways?
How do we update our thinking of when and where we apply Machine Intelligence for Automation versus Augmentation?
How do we cope with the inevitable tensions resulting from the fact that AI technologies and capabilities are moving so quickly while the pace at which our own organisations change and adapt is so much slower?

This is the very last chance for you to be part of an in-person dialogue session with Steven, before he departs Singapore and returns to the US. Steven has been a prominent and colourful figure in the Singapore IT community for the past 23 years. He is well-known across industry, government and academia for his prior role as Founding Dean of SMU’s School of Computing and Information Systems, as well as for his expertise in AI applications and impacts, Human-Machine symbiosis and hybrid intelligence, and organizational learning and capability building.
Based on his recent book, Working with AI: Real Stories of Human-Machine Collaboration (co-authored with Tom Davenport), and his many write ups of AI deployments and digital transformation efforts across industry and public sector in Singapore and beyond, Steven will help us to understand how to navigate this new reality of hybridisation and co-existence.
This facilitated discussion will be a great opportunity to gain valuable perspectives and insights from Steven, as well as from your fellow industry leaders.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the world as we know it. New and powerful generative AI models are being deployed across industries to transform the way we all live and work.
As we stand on the cusp of the AI revolution, many organisations have been quick to harness AI technologies to enhance their businesses and empower their workforce. Many others have experimented with new applications for AI, pushing boundaries and exploring opportunities. However, the advantages of using AI entail risks to cybersecurity and data integrity that can quickly erode digital trust. Companies now face a moment of truth: How can they protect their users from emerging threats and misuse of data, while forging ahead in the AI race?
The 37th CIO Workshop explores how digital trust has inevitably become the latest valued currency in the global economy—a strong indicator of an organisation’s ability to operate responsibly and safely with AI.
In this forum, we’ll discuss how various industries and organisations are approaching innovation and the adoption of AI. From upskilling the future AI talent pool to implementing responsible AI practices and embedding strong cybersecurity controls, we will highlight key steps on how businesses can build confidence in this evolving digital landscape.
The workshop kicks off with a full-day session in Singapore on 6 May and continues with the overseas segment in Shanghai and Hangzhou from 7 to 10 May.
