ABSTRACT:
The session explores the evolving landscape of human AI coordination, focusing on the Progressive Trust Framework, a structured approach to building, calibrating, and scaling trust between humans and AI systems. As AI transforms business operations, organizations must navigate the inherent uncertainty in AI outcomes, characterized by aleatoric and epistemic factors, and ensure confidence scores are properly calibrated.
Three stages of human-AI interaction are detailed: Human-in-the-Loop (HITL), Human-on-the-Loop (HOTL), and Agentic AI, each with distinct roles, controls, and risk profiles. Technical guardrails, performance monitoring, and feedback loops enable safe progression toward greater AI autonomy,
The session bridges classic and modern AI paradigms, offering actionable strategies for technical leaders to advance trustworthy automation in complex enterprise environments.
