Agentic AI: Risks and (Over)Promises

Thursday, April 2nd | 6:00 PM ET
 

What happens when AI doesn’t just generate content—but starts making decisions? And what’s the real risk when “agentic AI” is deployed faster than governance can keep up?

Uncover the truth behind the hype at this exclusive Technology Executive Dinner featuring Nick Ritter, CISO at Worldpay, presenting “Agentic AI: Risks and (Over)Promises.” As the security leader of a global payments powerhouse, Nick brings a frontline perspective on where autonomous AI agents create measurable value—and where they introduce material risk to security, compliance, and operational resilience. This session will go over:

  • Ai offers unprecedented opportunities to reshape business processes and productivity, at the same time the impact on workers, morale, and society cannot be ignored.
  • While the promise of Ai is skyrocketing, the hype around Ai is even more intense. How do we sort out what’s real, what’s hype, and possible?
  • Equally discussed are the risks. How do we tell what risks are real, what risks are negative hype, and how do we cope with the risks?

This is a no-nonsense conversation for CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and senior technology leaders navigating AI pilots, scaling roadblocks, and board-level scrutiny. Expect sharp perspectives on managing AI-driven automation, balancing innovation with control, and avoiding the governance gaps that derail transformation efforts. No theory. No vendor fluff. Just practical insight from someone accountable for protecting mission-critical infrastructure at scale.

Hosted by TechTalk Summits—the #1 leader in short-format technology events—this private executive dinner is designed for meaningful dialogue, not crowded expo halls. Engage directly with peers and solution providers in an intimate setting that encourages candid discussion, real-world problem solving, and strategic connections.

Add premium dining at a top-rated venue, and you have an evening engineered for high-value conversations that elevate your strategic edge.

Seats are intentionally limited to maintain the quality of discussion.

Secure your spot now and stay ahead of the realities shaping agentic AI.
