Panel: Beyond the Magic - Making AI and Quantum work in the real world | Davos Daily Show

Davos Daily Show — 21 January — 12:10-12:40 CET

AI and quantum computing are often framed as revolutionary forces set to transform productivity and problem-solving. Yet much of the current technology is constrained by data quality, model design, and the human systems that support it. Trust, explainability and validation are central to effective deployment, while the hype surrounding “out-of-the-box” tools often obscures the real challenge of integration and oversight. How can organisations separate promise from reality, manage implementation responsibly, and align human expertise with machine capability?

How can businesses move from experimentation to measurable outcomes in AI and quantum applications?
What are the practical limits of current models, and how should leaders manage expectations around performance?
How can explainability and benchmarking improve trust and accountability in AI systems?
What frameworks can ensure responsible implementation, from data governance to human-in-the-loop oversight?
How can companies close the skills gap and prepare teams for next-generation technologies?
Which sectors stand to benefit most from the convergence of AI and quantum computing?
