AI Won't Take Your Job. But Someone Using it Might
AI is redefining not just what we do at work, but how we do it - and with whom. As agentic AI systems evolve from tools into active collaborators, they’re changing how decisions are made, how teams function and what skills are truly valuable.
Timo's & Sonia's keynote explores the emerging partnership between humans and AI agents, highlighting the shift from automation to amplification. You’ll get practical insights into reskilling, role evolution and building a culture where continuous learning and human-AI collaboration drive real innovation.
