But nothing can prepare technology users for the transformation that is starting to build around the business’s accelerating use of AI. A combination of open-source tools, access to data, and changing skill sets amongst business executives provide an environment for business leaders and their staff to bypass tech for technology-driven business solutions. CXOs and their organizations must rapidly develop a transformation plan to support the business, or else technology will be left behind in the “AI everywhere” world. Speakers Kevin Prouty Group Vice President & General Manager, Tech Buyer Business at IDC 9:30 AM - Workgrid 10:00 AM Speaker: Robert Ryan, Director of Product Marketing Workgrid: Revolutionizing your Workplace With Conversational AI Assistants The conversation around the potential of AI is everywhere, but the question is – where to begin.

The reality, though, is that while AI offers great opportunities for moving the needle, the extent to which it can transform the enterprise is ultimately limited. To illustrate this point, this presentation examines the impact of AI on the cybersecurity market to offer examples of what AI can do that is radically new, as well as which tasks AI is unlikely ever to conquer. Speakers Christopher Tozzi Adjunct Research Analyst at IDC 11:30 AM 12:00 PM Track 2: AI-Ready Infrastructure Partnering for Success: Optimizing Infrastructure for the GenAI Era In today's dynamic market, technology sits at the forefront as customers digitally transform their businesses through optimized data models and workloads. This session explores the pivotal role played by technology in unlocking value for organizations as they securely optimize workloads across edge, core, and hybrid cloud environments. From tailoring infrastructure strategies to seamless deployment, and from managing services for peak performance to addressing security, compliance, and up-skilling needs, technology is more critical than ever to customer success. Join Matt as he explores transformational opportunities and gain insights on navigating the ever-evolving infrastructure optimization landscape being enabled by new data models and new generative AI based applications." Speakers Matt Eastwood Senior Vice President at IDC 11:30 AM 12:00 PM Track 3: Models and Platforms GenAI for Competitive Advantage: Build versus Buy This topic explores the strategic decision-making process regarding the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) for gaining a competitive advantage. It delves into the considerations of whether to build capabilities in-house or to acquire them externally. Analyzing the advantages and challenges associated with both options, the discussion revolves around optimizing the balance between developing proprietary AI solutions and leveraging existing ones to enhance competitiveness in the evolving business landscape. Speakers Daniel Saroff Vice President Consulting Services at IDC 11:30 AM 12:00 PM Track 4: Applications and Use Cases Charting your GenAI Use Case Journey: Key Functional and Application Areas to Prioritize Generative AI is exploding, but without business use cases to learn and understand the application and value of it, organizations don’t understand why it is critical to incorporate GenAI into their business processes. This session will showcase GenAI use cases in some of the key functional/application areas such as customer service and support, finance, and human resources. The GenAI uses cases will also bring forward the value of speed, scale, agility and results achieved from the incorporation of GenAI into the business. Speakers Mickey North Rizza Program Vice President, Enterprise Applications and Digital Commerce at IDC 11:30 AM 12:00 PM Track 5: Security, Trust & Data Governance Generative AI, Predictive AI & the CISO Combinations of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have influenced the cybersecurity landscape for the better of 15 years. What computers have always been able to do is make correlations to the bytes, files, hashes, and code that comprise a network. However, for all of the improvements in computing and years of refining algorithms, so much of operating the network and the cybersecurity software that protects the network are still manually intensive processes. After all of this time, recent developments in generative AI are seemingly addressing the cybersecurity manpower gap. IDC calls it "autonomizing the SOC." The process of realizing a fully autonomous SOC involves several intermediary steps, but the new efficiencies in evidence are: • The availability of enriched data at the time of the incident investigation • The ability to generate an instantaneous response based on the type of attack is increasingly automated • The implementation of analytics to discover unmanaged devices in the network • The development of natural language processing (NLP) that enables threat hunting and security querying at the speed of speech AI is improving SOC processes and empowering security analysts; the power comes at a critical time as organizations struggle with hybrid, multicloud complexity and a chronic workforce shortage. However, the hard work is not about the AI at all, but creating and enabling the security data foundations that will allow AI to create outcomes. Regardless, the cause for overall optimism is real. This session will provide an overview AI in security and discuss the reasons for the real optimism. Speakers Frank Dickson Group Vice President, Security & Trust at IDC 12:05 PM 12:35 PM Track 1: AI Transformation Insider insights: Proven Strategies to Maximize your Data Tech and AI Investments This session delivers essential insights to unleash the full potential of your data, tech, and AI investments.

AI driven Decision Intelligence has the potential to become the next killer app. AI can assist, augment and automate decisioning allowing enterprises to significantly improve their decision velocity, which in turn generates significant improvements in business outcomes. This session will describe where Decision Intelligence Platforms belong in your enterprise intelligence architecture stack, and how you can improve business performance leveraging AI in decision-making. Speakers Chandana Gopal Research Director at IDC 11:30 AM 12:00 PM Track 2: AI-Ready Infrastructure Performance Intensive Computing: Your AI-ready Infrastructure IDC research shows that many HPC and AI projects fail due to lack of attention or proper investments into infrastructure. The industry has conditioned IT organizations to think that general purpose infrastructure is good enough for most use cases. IT organizations often make the mistake of assuming that it is good enough for AI use cases as well. The reality is that fit-for-purpose infrastructure is gaining traction specifically for high performance use cases and workloads like AI and HPC. IDC calls this infrastructure as “performance intensive computing infrastructure (PICI)”. It can be deployed on-premises, in hosted facility or consumed in the public cloud.

Learn from leading AI solution providers across vertical markets, each sharing their expertise and innovative solutions to help you navigate the AI landscape and unlock new possibilities. Event Tag AI Transformation IDC’s research shows that most organizations are still at the early stages of their AI journey. However, GenAI has been the catalyst to accelerate AI transformation initiative as the C-Suite looks to establish first-mover advantage. Organizations are still asking questions around which use case to prioritize, whether to ‘build or buy’ AI capabilities, and how to govern their AI environments to mitigate risk. This track will cover the strategy and roadmaps, the intelligence architecture and the re-skilling and enablement initiatives that need to be put in place to drive a future proof AI transformation at scale. Learn more Event Tag AI-Ready Infrastructure Infrastructure is the most underestimated nonetheless critical component of any AI initiative. IDC finds that most AI projects fail or deliver subpar outcomes because of lack of planning or inadequate investments in optimized and fit-for-purpose infrastructure stacks for AI and Generative AI. This track will focus on how tech organizations can plan to succeed with their AI initiatives with their infrastructure investments. Learn more Event Tag Models & Platforms Since the first foundation models were released in 2018, a common belief was that more extensive training data and models with more parameters would be more performant and move the AI market toward "artificial general intelligence." Resource-rich tech companies developed the first foundation models for use in their own proprietary offerings. In late 2022, the open-source community began releasing a myriad of foundation models, which have been proliferating into 2023. The current foundation model market is a mix of proprietary and open-source models covering a range of model types, including language, image, audio, music, code, video, 3D, bio-molecular structures, and industry-specific models. This track will cover these models in more detail – as well as the highlighting the architecture for the platforms that need to be put in place to train, tune and deploy them. Learn more Event Tag Applications & Use Cases Ultimately, the value to organizations will be delivered through use cases. IDC defines a use case as a business-funded initiative enabled by technology that delivers a measurable outcome. There are three broad types of GenAI use cases that need to be assessed: * Generic productivity. These are basic use cases such as summarizing a report, generating a job description, or code generation. * Business function. These specific use cases will tend to integrate a model (or multiple models) with enterprise data for a specific function (e.g., marketing, sales, service, procurement etc.). * Industry-specific. These advanced use cases will generally require more custom work (and in most cases require building your own GenAI model) to address industry-specific processes or activities. This track will explore all the of these use cases, as well as the various applications underpinning them. Learn more Event Tag Security, Trust & Governance There are numerous well-founded concerns around transparency, biases, regulatory compliance, security threats, and ethics associated with AI. The growing scale of models (especially GenAI models) means that are often viewed as black boxes with limited transparency – this limitation is especially important when the outcomes of the model have major human consequences, whether being turned down for a loan or given an assessment of the likelihood of cancer. The outcry for better trust and governance has led to a push for explainable solutions and an emphasis on human-in-the-loop augmentation, rather than pure unsupervised automation for high risk use cases. This track will cover the technologies and strategies required to mitigate the range of risks associated with AI.
