We hosted a private event for members of Capital Club Dubai to bring awareness of Cyber Security risks and to introduce Dubai Cyber Force, a Dubai Electronic Security Center framework. We were kindly hosted by Stefano Ferretti, who professionally put all the speakers to the test. Mahmoud Yassin from CYB3R delved into his experience defending from cyber attacks. Martyn Cowie from Tyde Digital gave input on how to implement cyber security mitigations at a strategic level. William Wright (ChCSP) touched on a hackers perspective and shared insights from industry. It was wonderful to see so many members engaging in the discussion and taking away actions they can implement today to make their businesses safer. The session was recorded and we'll be sharing highlights in the near future. We will be holding a practical workshop at the club later in the year and suggest getting your name on the list early! #cybersecurity #dubai

Using GenAI to augment board discussions and decisions is at the center of my work. Many useful insights on this important topic emerged from the debate on “Boards – To AI or Not to AI” debate at Capital Club Dubai this week, chaired by Tariq Qureishy with Feroz Sanaulla and Krishnan Gopi on the pro and Audrey Lemmert and Karl Tlais on the against. Here is a summary of some of the most interesting arguments and insights shared in the debate. Arguments for using AI in boardrooms: 📊 Enhanced efficiency: Board members are often overwhelmed with information, being handed multi-hundred page briefing documents. Used well, AI can make this cognitively more manageable. ⚖️ Reduce bias: Well designed AI systems can reduce human biases and provide more objective analysis and balanced decisions. 🧠 Augmenting human capabilities: Used effectively, AI can augment human capabilities for board members to make better-informed decisions. 🔮 Improved decision-making: AI can support strategic decisions with predictive analytics, future trend projections, and other useful inputs to human decision-making. 📈 Adapting to change: AI can help boards stay ahead of change by monitoring trends and providing timely insights. Arguments against using AI in boardrooms: ⚠️ Data quality and bias: AI's input is only as good as the data it is trained on. Often, flawed or biased data leads to the perpetuation of bias. 🔒 Security: Using AI raises significant cybersecurity risks when highly sensitive data is at stake. 📜 Lack of regulatory frameworks: Without regulation and guidance, implementing AI could lead to legal and ethical issues, especially on accountability. ⚖️ Ethical and legal liability: The lack of transparency in AI decision-making raises concerns about who is accountable for AI-driven and sometimes unexplainable decisions and inputs. 🧩 Human experience and judgment: The human element in decision-making, including empathy, ethics, and critical thinking, cannot be replicated by AI. Human oversight and judgment are crucial, especially in complex and nuanced situations. Of course, the conclusion must be that AI should absolutely be used in the boardroom, but taking full account of and addressing the potential downsides. The last point made above, that humans cannot be replaced by AI in high-stakes, human-impacting decisions, doesn’t mean board members cannot be augmented by AI to make better decisions, if used well. We are already at the outset of high performance Humans + AI boards. Now the urgent task is doing this as well as we possibly can.

If you and your office teams are not using AI tools, then you are not prepared for what's coming! But we have you covered and bring this workshop EXCLUSIVELY for Capital Club Dubai Members, to equip you and your staff with the necessary AI tools to be more efficient, creative, competitive and grow your business.  According to Coursera's Global Skills Report 2024, enrolment in generative artificial intelligence courses in the UAE has soared by 1,102% over the past year, outpacing regional and global trends. #aitools #training #members #learning #knowledge #business #uae Alaa Dalghan Mohamed K.
