A.I. is promising the moon and the stars, but how do you actually make sense of all of it? Tune in today’s episode to discover how! Krista Sande-Kerback is Marketing Leader for OpenPages which is IBM’s platform for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). She is working on the upcoming major launch of watsonx.governance. Watsonx is IBM’s recently announced generative A.I. platform that comes with a suite of tools for tuning large language models, a data store built on lakehouse architecture, and an A.I. governance toolkit aimed at mitigating risk associated with A.I. and protecting customers' privacy. Krista is a strategic advisor and marketing leader who has spent her career building and scaling marketing and transformation programs and providing critical insights to senior executives. She previously supported IBM’s acquisition of Brazilian RPA provider WDG Automation in 2020, and has conducted market intelligence research on the latest technology trends, trained dozens of teams in Agile methodologies, and scaled a startup. Krista is an alumna of Dartmouth College and Columbia Business School. A former Fulbright Scholar to Germany, she serves on the Board of Directors for the Fulbright Association’s New York Chapter.
