Escalating adverse event volumes, increasingly complex therapies, and growing regulatory expectations are testing the limits of traditional, human-intensive safety models. The future of patient safety will not be defined by artificial intelligence alone. It will be shaped by a new partnership: human judgment and AI at scale. This keynote panel discussion will explore how autonomous agentic AI systems are transforming safety operations from reactive monitoring to predictive assurance and accelerate decision-making. The panel will also throw light on where human judgement will remain critical, what new skills will define future roles and how will the safety function ultimately.
