Hosted at the intersection of technology and industry, the event drew a crowd eager to explore the promise—and pitfalls—of AI.

Moderated by Mitch Berkey, co-chair of Israel Bonds’ Commerce and Industry Division, the panel featured leading voices across key sectors: Islay Buress, AIA, RA, Marc D. Schein, CRM, CIC, CLCS and Michaelle Schaap. Together they unpacked the timely topic: “What is AI—How Do We Use It in the Corporate Setting and What Are the Dangers?”

The conversation tackled AI’s massive potential as a business accelerator—from automating processes to reducing staffing needs—while not shying away from its more controversial aspects. Panelists explored hot-button issues like data privacy, copyright concerns and the growing threat of misinformation in an age of machine learning.

Real-world examples brought the discussion to life, as panelists shared how sectors like insurance, law and architecture are already integrating AI into their daily workflows. These industries are charting a new path, blending cutting-edge efficiency with ethical responsibility.

The evening left attendees informed, energized and ready to think critically about AI’s expanding role in business.
