PMI UK London: Does AI control us, or do we control AI? 15th July 2026

This event is taking place at University of Westminster 35, Marylebone Road, London, NW1 5LS in the the Orla Gough Lecture Theatre

Steve Butler will be discussing the most consequential governance challenge of our time: proving that human authority over AI-shaped decisions is real – not assumed, not claimed, but evidenced. He will be discussing the implications faced by delivery professionals, and the challenges and opportunities that await us all, in an entertaining way perhaps not seen by attendees before. A thought provoking evening is guaranteed.
