AI Development and Deployment in the Same City
Montreal's unique position as both an AI research hub and a deployment center means your organization likely understands AI's power. What many teams miss is the gap between what AI can do and what it should do without human judgment.
When researchers at institutions like Mila hand off their work to product teams, marketing departments, or decision-makers, the assumption is often that the technology will work as intended. It rarely accounts for the moment when AI produces an output that is technically correct but contextually wrong, biased, or simply off-strategy.
Without structured human override, your organization loses the ability to correct course. The AI system becomes the final word, not a tool that serves your people and your goals.
What This Talk Delivers for Your Team
Steve Raju's keynote is built for leaders, product managers, and technical teams who have already adopted AI but recognize the risk of relying on it without safeguards. He shows you how to build effective human judgment back into your workflows.
You will learn how to design systems where AI outputs are reviewed, questioned, and improved before they drive decisions. This is not about slowing down adoption. It is about making your AI investments safer and more valuable.
The talk is practical. It uses examples from organizations that have faced real consequences for failing to maintain human oversight. Montreal audiences benefit from the local context: they understand both the research and the stakes of getting deployment wrong.
