Webinar: AI in Safety and Risk: What’s Real, What Matters—and Where People Still Make the Difference

December 3, 2026
|
10:00 am CST
A candid panel on what AI can — and cannot — do for safety, risk, and supplier management

About this event

AI is everywhere.

But is it actually making work safer?

Organizations are racing to adopt AI across safety, risk, procurement, and supplier-management programs. Yet more AI does not automatically mean better decisions, stronger compliance, or safer operations.

When the underlying data is incomplete, workflows are disconnected, or accountability is unclear, AI may simply make bad decisions happen faster.

Join Avetta’s own Scott Debow and panelists Chet Brandon from Hexion, Ariana Howard from Synchra, and John Steedman from Avetta for a provocative conversation about the promises, limitations, and unintended consequences of AI in safety and risk.

The panel will explore what AI is really delivering, where it can introduce new risk, and what leaders need to consider before scaling it.

What You’ll Learn

  • Where AI is creating real value in safety, risk, and supplier management
  • Whether AI is solving problems—or accelerating broken processes
  • How poor data and disconnected workflows limit AI’s impact
  • Where automation can create false confidence
  • Why human judgment and accountability still matter
  • What questions to ask before investing in or scaling AI
