The shift from ‘AI as a tool’ to ‘AI as an agent’ is one of the defining transitions of this year and it demands more than a technical response. It requires leaders who can think creatively across disciplines and engage seriously with both the opportunities and the risks.
NCM’s one-day summit, Intelligence Embodied, brings together technologists, designers, researchers and industry leaders to examine what it means as AI moves beyond chat interfaces and into the physical world, becoming systems that can perceive, decide and act. Set within a museum context and carefully curated accordingly, this is a forum designed to elevate the conversation beyond product and into consequence.
Featuring perspectives from pioneering researchers and engineers, alongside leaders in human-AI collaboration and governance, the summit will explore where Australia stands globally, what is at stake for our workforce, and how organisations can respond with clarity and intent.
This is a high-calibre forum for leaders ready to move beyond traditional AI deployment, with a clear focus on the emerging distinction between agentic and embodied systems, and the implications this shift carries for how organisations operate, govern and make decisions.
All tickets include a welcome drink upon arrival and lunch.
