Me, Myself, and AI: Uncertainty, Understanding, and Partnership
IN-PERSON EXECUTIVE DINNER
In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, leaders are navigating a growing tension between excitement and anxiety around artificial intelligence. According to recent studies from Gartner, McKinsey, and the Edelman Trust Barometer, while 94% of C-suite executives say they understand generative AI, only 1% consider their organizations AI-mature, and 65% of brand leaders still struggle to clearly define its business impact. At the same time, trust lags investment, with fewer than half of people globally comfortable with businesses using AI. If understanding remains uneven and trust is fragile, how does an organization understand what AI truly means for their business, build trust in its capabilities, and develop operational confidence.
The organizations making headways are shifting the conversation from hype to intention. Rather than chasing experimentation alone, leaders are focusing on building shared understanding, establishing trust through clear guardrails, and developing the confidence to scale AI in ways that align with culture, governance, and long-term goals. This approach reframes AI not as a replacement for human judgment, but as a partner that strengthens decision-making, accountability, and execution.
Join cross industry top executives and Pega thought leaders for an intimate, candid discussion on the personal and organizational realities of AI leadership today. Together, we’ll explore how leaders are navigating the journey from uncertainty to confidence, examining what it takes to build trust, readiness, and conviction in human–AI collaboration without losing sight of risk, responsibility, or long-term impact.
Discussion topics
The uncertainty leaders face while balancing AI excitement with skepticism as they define their role in human–AI collaboration.
Building trust in AI by aligning expectations with reality around accuracy, accountability, and risk.
Developing the confidence to move from experimentation toward sustainable adoption without losing organizational readiness.
