Main Conference Day 1 - February 24, 2026

2:50 PM Panel Discussion: The Ethics Equation: Governing AI in a High-Stakes Energy Landscape

As AI becomes deeply embedded the need for ethical oversight has never been more urgent. While 77% of organizations are actively developing AI governance strategies (rising to 90% among those with operational AI), the industry still grapples with a fundamental question: how do we govern AI responsibly in environments here the stakes are high, and the consequences of failure even higher? This session will explore:

How organizations can move from capability to responsibility when automating tasks with AI, balancing efficiency with ethical considerations, especially in contexts where human judgment remains essential
How to implement governance frameworks that provide guardrails, not guesswork, evaluating AI outputs for accuracy, mitigating hallucinations, and reducing bias to build trust in systems making increasingly high-impact decisions
How to identify and address bias and behavior in AI models by uncovering hidden biases, understanding model behavior patterns, and training teams to critically assess AI-generated outputs
