DESCRIPTION:AI is already embedded in the workplace\, and it&rsquo\;s here 
 to stay. The real question is whether you&rsquo\;re using it effectively 
 and safely. From drafting emails to streamlining operations\, the 
 opportunities are significant\, but so are the risks around data 
 exposure\, accuracy\, and compliance. Join the Airforwarders 
 Association&rsquo\;s Technology Committee for a practical\, forwarder-
 focused discussion on how to leverage AI tools in a business setting 
 without putting your organization at risk. This session cuts through the 
 noise to focus on real-world applications\, when to use open versus closed
  systems\, and how to generate more reliable\, high-quality results. 
 Industry leaders will lead a roundtable discussion to share how they are 
 using AI today and key considerations around data privacy\, licensing\, 
 and legal risk. We&rsquo\;ll also explore how prompt engineering can 
 dramatically improve outputs\, helping teams work smarter\, faster\, and 
 with greater confidence. Round Table Facilitators: &bull\; Geoff Milson\, 
 Forerunners Consulting &bull\; Brennan O&rsquo\;Dowd\, Industry Expert 
 &bull\; Ryan Resnick\, Airspace Technologies &bull\; Jacob Fisher\, The 
 Rock-It Company Participants will gain insights to: &bull\; Identify safe 
 and effective use cases for AI in daily operations &bull\; Understand when
  to use public tools versus enterprise or closed-source solutions &bull\; 
 Recognize risks around data privacy\, ownership\, and exposure &bull\; 
 Improve AI outputs through practical prompt engineering techniques &bull\;
  Reduce errors and &ldquo\;hallucinations&rdquo\; when using AI tools 
 &bull\; Evaluate AI platforms\, including licensing considerations and 
 data protections This session is designed to provide practical\, 
 actionable guidance to help forwarders confidently integrate AI into their
  workflows while protecting their business. Come ready with your 
 questions\, insights\, and ready to discuss this ever-evolving technology.
