SMC Meeting Q3 2026

September 3, 2026 10:30 AM - 2:00 PM (CDT)

Description


AI in Safety Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the transportation industry, but success depends on understanding when to leverage technology—and when human expertise remains essential. Join us for a dynamic day exploring the practical applications of AI in safety operations. The morning session will feature a claims team that actively uses AI to demonstrate how technology can improve efficiency, enhance decision-making, and support safety professionals while emphasizing the critical role of human judgment. 

The afternoon will shift to an interactive roundtable discussion designed to encourage open conversation and peer-to-peer learning. A moderated panel of industry professionals will be on hand to field questions, share their experiences implementing AI and automation, and provide practical insights based on real-world applications. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own challenges, repetitive tasks, or operational pain points to the discussion, creating an opportunity to exchange ideas, explore solutions, and learn how others are leveraging AI to improve safety, compliance, and efficiency.
