I run lectures and courses that make AI simple and practical for execs, who do not have the time to become a specialist, but want to know enough to make business decisions. My sessions cover everything from the basics of AI and machine learning to where the technology is headed next. Of course, I’ll go into real-world examples, and we are goin to explore how AI is reshaping business, and even tackle some hands-on problem-solving using tools like Generative AI, and Agentic AI. I also focus on AI Governance, helping leaders understand how to implement AI responsibly while balancing innovation with ethics. By the end, you’ll have the insights and strategies you need to confidently lead AI initiatives and stay ahead in the game.
THE FUTURE OF AI
This lecture is about the evolution of AI across five key spaces. The Generation Space is where AI starts small. Creating content, analyzing data, and spotting trends. Then comes the Productivity Space, where AI boosts efficiency by automating tasks and driving smarter decisions. In the Business (re-)Design Space, AI reshapes how businesses operate, enabling AI-first companies that break old business models. The Embodied AI Space takes things further, merging AI with robotics to enhance what humans and machines can do together. Finally, the Singularity Space looks ahead to when AI outsmarts us all, pushing innovation to levels we can barely imagine. This journey shows how AI goes from a helpful tool to a game-changing force.
FROM MACHINE LEARNING TO SINGULARITY
This is basically one gluttonous session where we stomp through the cooked-up fairytales of Generative AI, but we start with Machine Learning, haul in Embodied AI kicking and screaming, and drop a steamroller over every inflated promise Big Tech vomited onto the future.
Marco has demonstrated his extensive knowledge of AI throughout us working together. His webinars but also his newsletters and industry comprehensions have proven to be highly insightful with a strong dose of humour and lightness, for both tech and non-tech enthusiasts. Can highly recommend!
