Why I offer this

AI is in the news most days and in most phones, and plenty of people have had nobody sensible to ask about it. A room, a screen and an hour puts that right. I would sooner people heard a calm explanation from someone local than pieced it together from headlines.

What the talk covers

What AI is, in words anyone can follow, and a live demonstration so the room can see it work and see it get something wrong. Then the parts people worry about most: scam messages and calls, fake pictures and voices, privacy, and what it means for jobs.

I finish with a handful of safe, useful things to try at home or at work, and then it is questions for as long as the slot allows.

Who it suits

Business networking groups and breakfast clubs. Libraries and adult learning groups. Charities and voluntary groups working out whether AI can save them time. Rotary, U3A, parish and neighbourhood meetings. If your members keep asking about AI, that is reason enough.

For organisers

I fit the slot you have and adjust the talk to the audience, so a room of retired engineers and a room of shop owners get different examples. All I need is something to project on and a plug. Tell me roughly who will be there and I will send a short description you can put in your newsletter.

Organisers ask.

Is this a sales talk?

No. I do not pitch products from the front of the room. If someone wants to ask about work afterwards they can, and most people just want their questions answered.

How long should we allow?

Forty-five minutes works for a lunchtime or club slot. Ninety minutes gives time for a live demonstration and a proper question session. I fit the slot you have.

What do you need from the venue?

A screen or a wall to project on, a plug and, ideally, wifi. I can bring a projector and use my own connection if the room has none.

What does a talk cost?

Short sessions start at £295. The exact figure depends on the group, the place and the length, and I agree it with the organiser beforehand.

Have a group that
keeps asking about AI?

Tell me who they are and how long you have. I will suggest a talk that fits and give you a straight figure.
