Who is accountable when AI systems make decisions? 🤖 On 17 June, during the VivaTech 2026 edition in Paris, Women in AI Co-founder Moojan Asghari moderated the panel "When AI Systems Decide, Where Does Responsibility Reside?", bringing together Arianna Legovini (The World Bank Group), Bruno Zerbib (Orange), Mark Roberts (Capgemini AI Futures Lab), and Antoine Bosselut (EPFL) to explore one of the most pressing challenges in AI today: accountability in autonomous systems. Together, they discussed how we can build AI responsibly, strengthen transparency, evolve governance frameworks, and ensure accountability as AI systems become increasingly autonomous. At Women in AI, we are proud of the contributions of our members in leading global conversations that help shape the future of artificial intelligence. As Moojan Asghari shared: "Talking about responsibility is how we raise awareness. But decisions about where money actually goes—that's what ultimately shapes the future." 💬 The conversation doesn't end on stage. Join us in continuing the discussion: How can we ensure AI becomes not only more capable, but also more accountable? 📹 Check the panel recording here: https:://https://lnkd.in/dGCUVCjF #WomenInAI #ResponsibleAI #AIGovernance #AIEthics #VivaTech #ArtificialIntelligencehttps
