Josephine’s session will focus on AI’s impact on the future of work, addressing one of the most pressing issues of our time. She remarked: 

“I am deeply honored to be invited by David Smith, Trade Commissioner, and Sylvain Fabi, Consul General of Canada in Denver, to speak at this significant event. I also want to thank Stephanie Garnica, Director of Global Engagement at DEDO, for this fantastic opportunity to highlight Skills4Good AI’s mission of democratizing Responsible AI Upskilling globally! 

 Collaborating with Global Affairs Canada and DEDO in Denver, Colorado, is a fantastic way to emphasize the importance of Responsible AI education and upskilling.
