View Program

AI has moved into the workplace – and increasingly, it has a say in what happens next. The question is no longer whether we will work with machines, but how.

Researchers have a name for where we want to go: hybrid intelligence – people and machines achieving more together than either could alone, and learning from each other along the way. That kind of interplay does not happen by itself. It takes trust, co-determination and skills – the very tools the Nordic model is built on.

On 1 April 2027, the Nordic AI Union Summit brings together union representatives, researchers, leaders and technologists from across the Nordics around one question: artificial intelligence – yes, but on whose terms?

Organised by NITO, Finansforbundet and Delta.


Shaping the Future of Hybrid Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is redefining the workplace, making the integration of human and machine intelligence a crucial consideration. The goal is "hybrid intelligence": a powerful synergy where people and AI achieve more together than either could individually, fostering continuous learning and innovation.

Achieving this collaborative future requires building trust, ensuring co-determination, and cultivating essential skills. These are core tenets of the Nordic model, providing a unique framework for ethical AI implementation. The Nordic AI Union Summit 2027 will convene leaders and experts to explore this pivotal question: "Hybrid intelligence – yes, but on whose terms?"
