The Human Algorithm: When Machines Make Life-or-Death Decisions

07 May 2026

Should algorithms decide who gets retrenched? When is a safety prediction accurate enough to stake a life on? Who's accountable when autonomous systems fail? 

These aren't theoretical debates—they're decisions mining leaders are making right now, often in silence. 

This groundbreaking closing session brings together leaders from AI, healthcare, autonomous systems, and enterprise who've wrestled with AI ethics at the sharp end. But this isn't a lecture—it's a reckoning. Through live ethical scenario voting and audience-led debate, YOU decide where the lines should be drawn. 

Leave with a personal ethical framework and commitment to action. 

Attendees will leave with: 

  • A personal ethical framework for AI deployment decisions 

  • Specific questions to ask their leadership teams before next AI rollout 

  • A commitment card outlining their next action on responsible AI
