I speak about building AI that deserves to be trusted: how agentic systems get designed, evaluated and shipped in a regulated bank, and how an organisation adopts AI without hollowing out its own expertise. Everything I talk about, my team and I have built, run or tested first.
A podcast conversation on making AI adoption organisation-wide without it becoming a checkbox exercise: who should use AI and for what, mental models for working with it, governance and guardrails, and how to deepen expertise rather than outsource thinking.
A panel on AI career paths: roles across research, engineering and everyday use, how to enter or grow in the field, and how generative AI is reshaping work.
Inside Commonwealth Bank I run the fortnightly sessions that keep my chapter current on agentic AI, hands-on workshops where engineers build their own squads of coding agents, and internal hackathons on AI agents. Every talk is tested on working practitioners before it reaches a stage.
A speaking record going back to 2006: machine learning, conversational AI and data science seminars at Commonwealth Bank (2017–2018), and a decade of research talks at Stanford, RIKEN and Sydney's universities (2006–2015).
