Event Details: Join us for a thought-provoking event with the legendary James Whittaker brought to you by ISACA Puget Sound Chapter and The Women in Tech Global. James has been known to talk about the future of AI for years and everything he’s predicted so far is already a reality. In this event James will delve into the complex interplay between AI and humanity's future. In an era where attention is a valuable commodity, the media often sensationalizes the risks posed by genocidal AI misfires. However, the immediate concern lies in the potential economic collapse caused by hyper-productive machines, leading to a significant reduction in wage-earning opportunities and the potential impoverishment of millions.

Speaker details: James Whittaker is an xFBI, xGOOGLE, xMICROSOFT. Aside from his remarkable contributions to the technology industry, James is known to be the Sriracha hot sauce in the world of ketchup. He refuses to be anything but brutally honest, making him an authentic, incredibly engaging speaker and a compelling thought leader. In addition to being one of the most remarkable storytellers of all time, James is a notable futurist and writer, author of many highly renowned publications and books. In one of his well-known blog posts, "Why I left Google", Whittaker writes candidly about the complicated feelings involved with falling out of love with Google and about his optimism for Microsoft’s potential. To his own surprise, the blog post garnered more than a million readers. Not only has James led a high-octane career in tech and storytelling but he also takes pride in being a brewer, building one the most high-tech brewery in the PNW. Join us at just one of James Whittaker’s famous breweries for this once-in-a-lifetime event where you can network with local tech professionals and be part of shaping our future in the world of AI.
