AI is moving quickly, but understanding where it is headed takes more than following the headlines.
Shaping AI is a new conversation series from the Tortora Brayda Institute bringing together the people and ideas helping shape what comes next. Through short, accessible discussions with experts from across industry, government, academia, cybersecurity, policy, and civil society, we will explore what is changing, why it matters, and what responsible progress can actually look like.
Across the series, we will look at both the people and the issues shaping AI, including:
- What different AI roles actually look like
- How organizations are putting AI into practice
- Governance, trust, security, and responsible adoption
- Workforce and policy implications
- Emerging risks and opportunities
- The developments that are changing the conversation in real time
You do not need to be an AI expert to join us. The goal is to make these conversations useful, understandable, and grounded in the real questions people and organizations are trying to answer right now.
For our kickoff conversation, we are starting a little closer to home.
Join us as our Communication Director, Louis Schirmer sits down with Jill Wideman, Executive Vice President of the Tortora Brayda Institute, and Ernest Wohnig, Chief Operating Officer of the Tortora Brayda Institute, to talk about what is changing at TBI, why Shaping AI is launching now, and where we see the conversation going next.
We’ll talk about:
- What is evolving at TBI
- Why AI is becoming an increasingly important part of TBI’s work
- What makes Shaping AI different from another traditional webinar series
- The kinds of people, roles, and issues we plan to explore
- Why cross-sector conversations around AI matter
- What we hope this series helps people better understand
Join us for the kickoff of Shaping AI and be part of the conversation.
