This week, the SAP Studio became a space for focused and open dialogue on a topic that is shaping our future today: Artificial Intelligence, and how we can develop and use it responsibly.
As part of our Tech Lounge, diverse expert perspectives came together to explore the intersections of technology, ethics, and society. No slides, no lectures – but a real conversation at eye level, live from the studio with participants both on-site and online.
Our speakers:
Andrea Martin, IBM Distinguished Engineer, CTO Ecosystem & Association, IBM DACH
Dilek Sezgün, Techsales Manager for AI, Data and Open Source, IBM DACH
Vanessa Micelli-Schmidt, Ph.D., Chief Product Manager, SAP Business Technology Platform
They shared insights on practical implementation, governance, and the cultural dimensions of AI – highlighting both opportunities and challenges.
Three key takeaways from the discussion:
Technology alone is not enough. AI requires ethical frameworks, accountability, and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
Diverse teams and perspectives lead to better decisions – and greater trust in technology.
Open dialogue spaces provide orientation, clarity, and shared learning.
What’s your perspective?
How is AI shaping your work environment – and what questions are top of mind for you? We look forward to your thoughts and input in the comments.
