The Techtonic 2.0: National Artificial Intelligence Summit is once again open for registration. The event is to be held for individuals who wish to listen and interact with inspiring local and international AI experts. 

The event will highlight the current and future potential of this paradigm-shifting technology. There will be a session focusing on AI applications in manufacturing.

The event will also have four break-out streams to explore: 

• Putting AI ethics principles into practice: the translation of Australia’s AI ethics principles into practice and the challenges that different organisations face in ensuring their development and use of AI is ethical 
• The next wave of AI technologies: future of AI and what can we expect from AI in the next 5 to 10 years 
• How do we AI proof our workforce: the impact of AI on the workforce and our skills system and what we can learn from previous waves of industry transformation 
• Using AI to deliver for citizens: how all Australians can benefit from AI and how AI be used to deliver better outcomes for regional and marginalised Australians 

AI has the potential to change people’s lives for the better. It will increase productivity, forge new industries and enable more inclusive services. This in turn will boost the economy, create new jobs, and improve Australians’ quality of life. 

The summit builds on the success of the first Techtonic summit and the Government’s recent work with the AI ethics pilot with industry and consultation on the forthcoming AI Action Plan. 

The initial schedule for the event has been postponed and the new date will be announced in the coming weeks.  

All sessions will be recorded and uploaded to the Australian Department of Industry’s website after the event. 

The venue for the event will be held online. To register, please go to the Department of Industry’s website.
