AI on ESG
Challenges and opportunities of Responsible Artificial Intelligence in the era of sustainability.
At Forética we have the enormous responsibility of guiding companies and organizations of all sectors and sizes in ESG criteria (Environment, Social Impact and Governance), always aligned with market trends and society in general.
Therefore, it is essential this space, which we have called 'AI ON ESG: Challenges and opportunities of Responsible Artificial Intelligence in the era of sustainability', in which we can discuss about the advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI), a technology that has come to stay, fulfilling an absolutely transformative role and with great potential to enrich our lives not only professionally but also personally.
It is also important to recognize that the speed of the emergence of AI, specifically Generative AI, also brings with it challenges that must be contemplated, anticipated, and that require urgent measures that have to do, in particular, with ethics, with responsible use by all parties, as well as with regulations that protect people and organizations.
We believe that, through the different voices - from Forética members and also from external experts, such as academics and third sector entities - we will be able to help generate conversation and learn about different reflections and perspectives that will enlighten us on this path that we must take together to make the most of a promising future.
