NZIM and IBM Bring You 'The Future of Work' 2017

There is growing concern about how Artificial Intelligence and robotics will transform jobs and wipe out entire professions, and NZIM and IBM are running two interactive and informative events in Auckland and Wellington at the end of September to address these concerns.

These courses will explore the idea that many believe Cognitive computing will help improve business outcomes by expanding human expertise and improving decision making, and the description of the event is, “Remember when mobile ate the internet? Guess what? Robots and Artificial Intelligence are here.” Data and analytics are transformational, yet many companies are capturing only a fraction of their value. The extent of digitalisation varies by industry, and is progressing unevenly among companies, industries and countries.

What is the potential of AI and automation in the workplace? Artificial Intelligence, or “cognitive computing”, is improving business outcomes by expanding human expertise and improving decision making across industries and professions. The good news, is the future is here and we’re working with AI already. Advances in AI and machine learning herald a new era of innovation and opportunity, and at these courses you can learn from some of the best and brightest minds in AI and Automation about what’s happening now and what’s coming next.

Presenting IBM research followed by a panel of futurists from New Zealand and Australia you can join NZIM in this interactive event where they will discuss this topic and demonstrate how cognitive solutions are already transforming organisations today and what steps can be taken to harness the unprecedented opportunity this new era of technology presents. 

 The Auckland event is from 5-7pm on Thursday 21st September at the IBM Office at 30 Gaunt Street, Wynyard Quarter, and in Wellington from 12-2pm on Tuesday 26th September at HRINZ Head Office, Level One, 11 Chews Lane in Wellington.
