About this session
AI makes it easier than ever to turn an idea into something real, even if you aren’t an AI engineer. But building faster also means making decisions faster about users, data, risk, and what happens when AI gets something wrong. This accessible workshop introduces Responsible AI as a practical product skill, not a compliance exercise. Using a real AI-powered product as a case study, we’ll explore six questions founders and builders can ask about purpose, people, data, failure, accountability, and whether AI is actually the right solution. Designed for founders, product people, small business owners, vibe coders, and the AI-curious, no machine learning or Responsible AI experience is required.
