Artificial intelligence is changing how work gets done across

decision-making. This keynote explores how AI is reshaping jobs,
changing skill demands, and creating new expectations for workers

real-world examples, Adina Gray helps audiences understand what is
changing, what remains deeply human, and how to prepare for the

Artificial intelligence is creating new forms of advantage, but
those benefits are not being distributed evenly. This keynote
explores how differences in access, confidence, skills, and
institutional support are shaping who adopts AI early, who falls
behind, and what that means for work, opportunity, and inclusion.
Drawing on current research, global trends, and a practical look at
how Canada compares with the rest of the world in AI adoption, Adina
Gray examines why this new divide matters and what leaders can do to
build more inclusive AI futures.
Ideal audiences:
International
conferences, policy forums, nonprofit and leadership summits,
workforce and global affairs events.
