Worried about AI Safety?

Concerned about how deepfakes and AI risks could impact your business? You’re not alone. As AI tools become more accessible, so do the risks—misinformation, fraud, and data misuse are becoming real threats, especially for SMEs.

🔎 According to Doc Ligot, here are 3 red flags small business owners should look out for:

• Black box tools – You don’t know how it works, but it makes key decisions.
• Too-good-to-be-true automation – Fast, easy, but with no audit trail.
• Lack of consent or transparency – Especially in tools that handle customer data.

“AI safety isn’t about fearing AI,” says Doc Ligot.
​
“It’s about designing systems that stay accountable — even when no one’s watching.”

📌 ​AI Safety starts with awareness — not just automation.

🕙 Time: 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM
