Signature Keynote

What You Don't Know About Using AI Is What Makes It Dangerous
There's a gap in how most people use AI, and they often won't know it's there until it comes back to bite them. For people and businesses alike, that gap puts money, time, reputation and security at risk. In the worst cases, it ends in lawsuits, breaches that ruin a business, or lives lost. You'll see where that gap is, and what it takes to close it before it costs you.
Best for: industry conferences, professional associations, leadership teams rolling out AI, and business owner communities.
Signature AI Workshop · hands-on
We're All Tony Stark Now: Make AI Do Your Work for You
AI can now go into your tools and do the work, and if you pay for ChatGPT or Claude, you already have it.
A working session, not a talk. September shows what AI now does inside people's tools. Then each attendee runs a guided analysis in their own AI to find where it would make the biggest difference in their work, and leaves knowing what it takes to make it happen: the connections to their tools and the business context their AI needs.
60–90 min · virtual or in person. Best for professional associations, business owner communities, entrepreneurship networks and mastermind groups.
