Educating audiences
about the latest advances
in artificial intelligence
I am very fortunate to take the occasional break from architecting machine learning platforms in order to teach executives about the latest and greatest developments in artificial intelligence. I cover a variety of topics and try to incorporate a good mix of: (1) where is the technology now?; (2) where is the technology heading?; (3) how can you prepare your organization for this change?; and (4) what are the ethical implications?

Creating an AI-Native Organization: Transforming How You Lead, Rebuilding How You Work
AI no longer just answers questions. It acts. Agents now run multi-step work, and org charts are being redrawn around people and machines working side by side. The bottleneck is rarely the technology; it is leaders too busy running the business to redesign it.
→ a blank-sheet method for rebuilding workflows around AI instead of bolting it onto old processes.
"At Baxter's 2024 Global Leadership Meeting, Dr. Michael Housman delivered a keynote that left a lasting impression on our leaders, demonstrating the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in healthcare. His engaging and motivational perspective highlighted AI's current impact and painted a picture of future opportunities for innovation. Dr. Housman’s passion and vision for the role of AI in improving lives were both clear and inspiring."
From Sci-Fi to Strategy: Navigating the AI Explosion
What today's models can really do, and how leading companies use them to compress timelines and build an unfair advantage. Technology moves exponentially; adoption moves linearly. That gap is both the risk and the opportunity.
→ a practical roadmap for future-proofing the business, incrementally and transformationally.
"PepsiCo organized an executive leadership meeting in Athens and we brought in Singularity University to help us think exponentially and expose us to disruptive technologies. We decided to add AI-ccelerator (vis a vis Dr. Michael Housman) to the retreat because of the rapid growth and adoption of generative AI models like ChatGPT and he did not disappoint! He provided us with an overview of how they work, where the ecosystem is headed, and potential implications for our business. Everyone walked away with a much deeper understanding of how generative AI is going to transform our business and how we can harness those tools to shape the future instead of letting it happen!"
AI and the Next Frontier: Mastering Advanced AI for Real-World Impact
Retrieval-augmented generation, multimodal and agentic AI, and the hard parts of scaling: measuring ROI, overcoming resistance to adoption and building an AI-first culture, told through real-world case studies.
→ the frameworks leaders need to move from pilots to measurable business impact.
"With the sudden emergence of ChatGPT late last year, we found that our partners and investors were asking us questions about what to do with the new technology. We brought in AI-ccelerator to explain how generative artificial intelligence worked and how they could leverage it within their businesses. Dr. Michael Housman did an incredible job unpacking the dense subject matter, offering up live demos, and making it accessible to a lay audience while also giving them a framework for solving problems they encounter. All of the audience members were raving about his talk afterwards and I cannot recommend him more highly as a subject matter expert and a speaker!"
Developing an AI-First Mindset: Driving Adoption and Usage
Tools are the easy part. This talk covers the toolset, skillset and mindset that decide whether AI takes hold across a company, and how leaders model the way instead of waiting for permission.
→ a playbook for getting a whole team using AI every day.
"I am sincerely grateful for the fantastic presentation Dr. Michael Housman delivered at our ILLT offsite. His insights into the world of AI were truly eye-opening - I think everyone in the room was completely blown away, and potentially slightly terrified too!! His passion and ability to communicate the concepts in such a clear and accessible manner really were inspiring, and despite the fact he was only with us virtually, the audience were captivated. It was a really solid foundation for the work we did in the afternoon on identifying further areas of our business that could benefit from the application of AI technology."
