AI agents can now reason, work together and take action across business systems. As they become more autonomous, trust stops being a nice-to-have and becomes the infrastructure that allows innovation to scale safely. In this session, Microsoft sets out its vision for the next generation of Responsible AI, covering policy and oversight through to security, transparency and accountability, and shows how organizations can unlock the value of agentic AI while staying firmly in control.
Cloud Lighthouse joins the session to share a real-world story: how we are using Microsoft’s ASSERT evaluation tooling alongside Centru.ai, our AI management platform, to build, test and govern an AI agent for clients. It’s a practical look at what Trustworthy AI means once an agent leaves the lab and goes to work.
Trustworthy AI sits at the heart of everything we do at Cloud Lighthouse and the Center for Trustworthy AI: the meeting point of engineering best practice, human ethics and legal regulation.
Join us to see how that thinking translates into agents organizations can confidently put in front of their people and customers.
