In our first Wine Wednesday of 2023, Sandi Gilbert, InterGen's CEO, sits down with two established tech experts, Cory Janssen, CEO & Co-Founder of AltaML and Nic Beique, CEO & Co-Founder of Helcim to talk all things artificial intelligence.

Business leaders, educators and health practitioners are facing real questions about how AI will impact them. While some are choosing to ban tools like ChatGPT, others are embracing AI to deliver better services, stimulate innovation and transform their businesses.
Join us for a glimpse into the “not too distant” future, powered by AI.
