The talks
The Two Tools You Actually Need

What AI Gets Wrong, and How to Catch It
Verification as a practical habit, drawn from a decade in newsrooms. Includes The Three Lists — the framework for deciding what can be typed into these tools, what needs care, and what must never go near them.
Redesigning the Executive Week
A live teardown of a real executive’s calendar and inbox, rebuilt on screen while the room watches.

Getting Out
The other three talks are practical. This one is personal.
It is the story of leaving the corporate world — how AI was the thing that made independence possible, what it actually took, and what it looks like on the other side. It is for people sitting in a job they have outgrown, wondering whether there is another way.
