Responsibly Unlocking Insights From Your Agency's Unstructured Data with AI

Underwriter Speaker: Leah Perry, Vice President, Chief Privacy Officer, Box

Underwriter Speaker: Brett Conrad, AVP, Public Sector Sales, Box

Underwriter Moderator: Wyn Elder, Managing Director, Global Federal Government, Box

Description

Studies indicate approximately 90% of an agency's total content is unstructured (emails, .ppt, spreadsheets, IMs, etc). But until recently, this content was largely unavailable to analyze at scale. Generative Ai and LLMs now have the capability to analyze and provide actionable insights from this content - but only agencies have a plan for how to access that content. This fireside chat with Box leaders Leah Perry , Chief Privacy Officer, Brett Conrad, AVP for Public Sector, and Wyn Elder, Managing Director for Federal will examine how agencies can leverage the enormous benefits of Ai, but still address the many valid concerns around transparency, control, security & privacy.
