AISIG: AI in Mining & Resources – From Innovation to Operational Impact
A joint event presented by the ACS WA Artificial Intelligence Special Interest Group (AISIG) and the Western Australian AI Hub (WA AI Hub)
As companies look beyond early AI testing, the real goal is figuring out how to use these tools every day to make a meaningful difference in how work gets done.
This panel brings together industry leaders to share what it really takes to bring AI into mining and resources. Together, we will explore how teams are expanding their use of smart tools, integrating them into daily operations, keeping technology safe and responsible, and supporting workers through these changes. Panellists will share honest stories, lessons learned, and practical advice on moving AI from an exciting idea to a helpful tool that creates real, long-term value.
Whether you work in tech, manage teams and resources, lead business strategy, or simply want to understand how AI is changing the way we work, this event is for you
