Description

Artificial Intelligence is no longer an emerging technology - it is an engineered system actively reshaping how societies operate, produce, and grow. 

Today, engineers are not just building smarter tools; they are designing the foundations of AI-driven infrastructure - from autonomous systems and large-scale data platforms to intelligent networks that adapt, optimise, and learn in real time.  

As AI moves from experimentation to integration, the questions are no longer if it will change the world, but how those changes will unfold - economically, socially, and systemically. What does it mean when intelligence becomes embedded in our energy grids, transport systems, supply chains, workplaces, and cities? What new capabilities are being created - and what second-order effects follow? 

Hear from our speakers:

• The Hon. Victor Michael Dominello (CEO of future and Former Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government)
• Lee Hickin (Executive Director, Australian National AI Centre)
• Sue Keay (Director of the UNSW AI Institute)
• Kavita Mistry (Chief Technology Officer, AMP Services Ltd)
• Toby Walsh (ARC Laureate Fellow and Scientia Professor of AI)

They explore: 

• The real-world future applications of AI 
• What’s emerging beyond the current generation of AI tools 
• How AI-driven infrastructure is transforming productivity, work, and the econom
