As Artificial Intelligence transitions from experimental technology to mission-critical enterprise infrastructure, the central question is no longer can AI do it — but should it, and can we trust it to? The 11th edition of ISDIA, in collaboration with UOWD Dubai, Protiviti, Dubai , take on this defining challenge of our era. Trustworthy AI encompasses the full spectrum of concerns that accompany intelligent systems at scale: algorithmic transparency, explainability, fairness, data privacy, regulatory compliance, and ethical accountability. With landmark frameworks such as the EU AI Act now in full force and the UAE’s own AI Governance agenda setting regional standards, organizations across every sector face the urgent imperative to build AI systems that are not only powerful, but auditable, reliable, and aligned with human values

ISDIA-2027 invites researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore how trust can be engineered into AI from the ground up — spanning model design, deployment pipelines, organizational governance, and societal impact. From AI risk frameworks and responsible automation to human-in-the-loop systems and cross border regulatory harmonization, this edition will serve as a global platform for advancing the science and practice of AI that the world can confidently rely upon. Set against Dubai’s ambition to be a world-leading hub for ethical and innovative AI, and supported by Protiviti’s deep expertise in risk management and digital transformation, ISDIA-2027 is poised to shape the next frontier of intelligent, accountable, and human-centered technology.

About OpenRAG

#

OpenRAG, is a trust infrastructure for AI that verifies whether an AI-generated answer is actually supported by its source context, highlights risky or contradictory claims, and refuses to blindly endorse hallucinations. As AI systems move into research, enterprise, finance, and policy decisions, the cost of incorrect or overconfident answers becomes critical. OpenRAG works as a model-agnostic verification layer that plugs into any LLM pipeline, API, or application. It breaks answers into claims, checks them against evidence, and generates human-readable trust reports with confidence and risk signals. Unlike chatbots or UI wrappers, OpenRAG is pure infrastructure designed for scale and integration. Users can access it via SDKs, APIs, web interfaces, or browser extensions. OpenRAG aims to become the default verification standard for AI-generated content, similar to how SSL became essential for web security.
