Teaming with AI Unconference

About our Teaming with A.I. Unconference

Why this conference

‍Artificial Intelligence keeps changing the way we work, collaborate, and innovate. From enhancing team communication, to optimizing decision-making processes, A.I. is becoming an indispensable part of teams and organizations across many industries. Our Teaming with A.I. Unconferences offer rich conversations and practical experiments to achieve a deeper understanding about all the different facets of Teaming with AI: How might AI change how teams work? How will we collaborate in teams? How will our experience of our teams change? What will we be able to do and achieve as a team? What further questions do we have to tackle that we are not aware of today?

What’s possible? What will be the future of teams?

‍Embarking on this journey of Teaming with AI isn’t about the usual integration of a new IT system; it requires a broader, more holistic focus. It’s about shifting our mindset from just improving the things we have always done to embracing real change and transformation. We need to reassess our priorities. We need to figure out what is actually possible. We need to understand how we as humans, as a team, fit into the new picture.

Join our community: Participate and contribute!

Since no one can yet tell us the final outcome, the best way forward is exploring this with others who are also on the same path, proceeding together, taking smaller, more deliberate steps, coupled with frequent reflection and adaptation. We believe this journey is necessary to adapt and to find a human-centered way of working with AI. This is why we invite you to be a part of this journey. Join our next Teaming with A.I. Unconference. Share your experience, and let’s shape the future of Teaming with A.I. together!

This conference is not a conference.

This event is run as an Unconference (also known as Barcamp) format. An unconference offers a flexible format where the participants decide what to talk about and what to do during the workshop sessions. This is a great fit for topics like Teaming with AI, where the field is still very much in flux. It allows people to talk about the latest developments and share new ideas instead of having to deal with an outdated agenda plotted months ago. Everyone can learn from each other and tackle new challenges together in real-time. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BarCamp. The documentation of our Teaming with A.I. Unconferences will lay the foundation for the next iterations of the Teaming with A.I. whitepaper.
