It's great to work with such amazing and impactful colleagues!
I wanted to share a bunch of ideas the human-centered and trustworthy AI teams at IBM Research labs worldwide have been simmering and are now externalizing. I encourage topics that might not be hyped, but are nevertheless important and ones that researchers believe in. /1

Had a great time taking part in a panel discussion on #generativeai at TechMahindra. One thing was loud and clear, there is an immense opportunity in front of us & in order to succeed, enterprises need to adopt GenAI in a trusted & governed manner.  #genai #techmahindra #watsonx
