With hype around the technology reaching near hysteric proportions, it’s time to cut through the noise and get a better grasp on some of the key questions:
- What is AI?
- How can an organisation use it to innovate?
- What are its ethical and sustainability implications?
In a time of unprecedented and rapid change, we understand such questions come with few easy answers. That’s why we’ll be welcoming regional AI experts who will share their insights from the vanguard of this new frontier. We'll also have three breakout rooms exploring the basics of AI, its potential applications for organisations, and practical, ethical and sustainability considerations.
Whether the mention of a large language model (LLM) conjures up images of an exceptionally tall person modelling the latest Collins dictionary, or you’ve experimented with ChatGPT and the like but are not sure how to take the next step, we’ve got you covered.
We’ll look forward to welcoming you for more food for thought and plenty of networking at the University of Sheffield’s INOX Dine on Wednesday 30 April from 9 - 11.30am.
Opening address: What AI means for South Yorkshire with Louisa Harrison-Walker, Chief Executive of the Sheffield Chamber of Commerce.
Demystifying AI: A breakout room led by Professor James Marshall, Director of the Centre for Machine Intelligence, University of Sheffield.
Using AI to innovate and advance your business
Ethics and sustainability: A breakout room led by Dr Alejandro Jimenez Rodriguez, Senior lecturer in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, Sheffield Hallam University.
Closing address: With Mel Kanarek, Co-Founder, Sheffield Digital

Future-scoping Hybrid Working Workshop - Information School, University of Sheffield
Description changed:
This knowledge exchange workshop will provide you with the space and time to come to grips with the issues and challenges of developing your own hybrid working practices in your organisations. We will share with you our research into how UK organisations are currently implementing hybrid working and the issues and challenges they are facing.
With the help of our facilitators, we will ask you to reflect on your actual hybrid working practices and discuss how this is affecting your productivity, wellbeing and work/life balance. We will then share with you a series of future-scoping digital technology scenarios to stimulate your own thoughts about how future technologies might help to shape your hybrid working experiences.
Our activities will focus on the three main issues: issues with hybrid working technological solutions, tensions of flexibility/autonomy vs. surveillance/control, and individual effects on employees’ wellbeing, work/life balance and socialisation.
Your insights and reflections will help us to provide hybrid working policy/guideline recommendations which we will share with you after our project ends.
