ESG was an important part of the @GTDC_org agenda this week - here we heard quite simply that sustainability will be the DNA of what makes your company a success. Not a panel. Not greenwashing. But real change.

Sustainability view from Massimiliano Rossi @Acer - yes we have a responsibility, it is an opportunity to tell the story to our partners and overcome the challenges, and it is about balance, as the keynote speaker Isabelle Perignon from @eucommission said. #tcg2024

Masterclass on the ethics of #ai from Joanna Bryson - actions can be taken that affect people’s lives - humans are responsible. You will be sued if people come to harm. There are starting to be due diligence companies checking things. #tcg2024 – at Berlin, Germany

29% not using #AI in their processes - a big shock to the audience. In fact as Stuart Blanch of @intel said, even the blur on Teams is AI generated. One thing is clear - those not integrating AI will be left behind. #tcg2024

Listening to AI talk makes me think of smart home on steroids. It’s about anticipation of your needs and helping people to manage complexity. This time it’s real. Encouraging after many false dawns. #tcg2024
