In this episode of Hyperight Data Talks, we sit down with Nordic tech leader and founder of Girls at Tech Nordics, Vanessa Eriksson, to explore the critical shift from AI-supported decisions to Delegated Authority. Vanessa challenges the industry to look beyond traditional data privacy, addressing the fundamental risks of handing over judgment and accountability to autonomous systems.
The conversation dives into how AI risk profiles change across the telco and automotive sectors, why speed without control is amplified exposure rather than true innovation, and how cyber security must evolve to focus on system behaviour and authority. Vanessa also emphasizes the vital role of diverse perspectives in maintaining AI integrity and explains why leadership remains the ultimate safety net in an era of agentic AI. Vanessa will dive deeper into these themes in her session, “Delegated Authority,” at the upcoming Data Innovation Summit this May.
