SUMMARY:AI Trends\, Tribulations and Transformations
DESCRIPTION:AI Trends\, Tribulations and Transformations\nTuesday\, June 2\, 20268am PDT | 11am EDT | 4pm BST (1 hour duration)\nSpeakers: Alec Levenson\, Sr Research Scientist\, CEO and Serena Huang\, founder of Data with Serena\, enterprise AI transformation leader\, and Affiliate Senior Research Scientist\, CEO. \nEveryone is asking how many jobs AI will eliminate\, and doomsayers warn of a coming jobs apocalypse. But most forecasts rely on a flawed assumption: that work can be cleanly broken into tasks\, automated in isolation\, and then translated directly into headcount reduction. That’s not how organizations actually work. \nWe are at an early inflection point for AI adoption. Though the initial hype has passed\, reports of struggles to effectively adopt AI and achieve meaningful ROI are everywhere. \nIn this session\, Alec Levenson and Serena Huang address the past\, present and future of AI disruption\, including: \n\nWhy AI job displacement forecasts break down when they assume task automation can be directly translated into headcount reduction\nWhy AI value depends on work re-design and business process transformation\, with humans still essential for judgment\, systems integration and accountability\nWhy measuring ROI of AI is becoming the real bottleneck in 2026\, as organizations struggle to connect pilots to improved business outcomes\nHow AI is creating uneven productivity gains while introducing hidden costs\nHow leading organizations are starting to redesign executive compensation and KPIs to support AI adoption and shift behavior toward new ways of working\n\n			 \n				Register Here\n			\n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				SPEAKERS\n			 \n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					ALEC LEVENSON\n					Senior Research Scientist\, Center for Effective Organizations \n					Former CHRO\, The Chemours Company\, CEO Advisory Board Member \n					\n				 \n			 \n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					SERENA HUANG\n					Founder of Data with Serena\, Enterprise AI Transformation Leader\, and Affiliate Research Scientist\, CEO \n					\n					\n				 \n			 \n			 \n				\n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n			 \n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nUniversity’s Notice of Non-Discrimination\nThis program is open to all eligible individuals.
