What it covers
The beats of the talk
Rewritten for each audience, so the order and the examples change. These are the subjects it covers.
Getting in without a conventional route
He took an unusual path, and he talks about it as one route among several, which is more useful to a room of students than a template.
What to learn when the tools keep changing
The parts worth investing in when the specific frameworks have a short half-life.
Open Q&A
Usually the half the students remember. Budget real time for it.
Demystifying AI, hands-on
“Machine learning isn't magic. It's math.”
The same math that pinpoints your phone on a map trains today's AI. He teaches it from first principles, often with Pepper, a humanoid robot, taking the audience's questions.
For students, developers and technical teams
Why him
He has run university sessions and speaks regularly to student audiences, and he is close enough to the start of his own career to answer the questions students actually ask.
