Hacking Humans

In this session, we look at the connection between technology and humanity, exploring how they are becoming increasingly intertwined. The integration of technology into our daily lives has dramatically changed the way we interact with the world and with each other. Understanding the interplay between technology and humanity is important for managing the potential consequences of this integration. Through this session, participants will gain insight into the implications of these developments and the research that has informed our understanding of this relationship. Participants will join Adam on a journey through his research work, exploring the ways in which technology is impacting humanity. They will engage in a thought-provoking and insightful discussion, exploring the benefits and challenges of this integration and the implications for the future. This session is ideal for those with an interest in the relationship between technology and humanity. It is suitable for professionals, academics, and anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of the interplay between these two areas. Participants will leave the session with a new perspective on the connection between technology and humanity and the impact this has on our lives.

The AI Zeitgeist

The latest information about the state of AI in society, drawing on the current Zeitgeist around AI. We draw on stories from mythology to frame the use of AI technology and how we might leverage it. We surf the social graph and human adoption of AI to understand its impact, and how we're in this intricate, inextricably linked dance with AI. We look at the pitfalls of some of our current approaches, and the ethical conundrums of AI. We consider the fundamental role, and difference, in being human as we begin to navigate a new world where we are no longer the most intelligent lifeform. The talk focuses the mind on the importance of the correct uses of AI for business and for society.

Wield Modern Magic

Wield Modern Magic is a keynote that looks at the power of technology we all have access to. It's about frugal innovation, and the ability to make change with the tools we have. We have powerful tools, unlike any generation before us. We have the ability to use these tools to make change, and we underestimate how powerful we are. This keynote will show examples of real innovation, and the obstacles to it. It will not guide audiences in an approach to making innovation happen under constraints, but also instil them with the sense that they have the power to create meaningful change.

Step Change

In this motivational keynote, the audience will hear about Adam's personal journey from "paralysis" to "analysis" and how technology played a crucial role in his transformation and ultimately his work. His experience of struggling with a medical condition and missing out on an education resonates with many people, as we all endure struggles. In particular, this led to his creativity in approaching his tertiary education. This created his "Step Change" as he overcame his own disability to go on to work on innovations to help the disabled. Adam's story highlights the power of technology to transform lives and overcome obstacles. The keynote will inspire the audience by demonstrating how a positive attitude and a willingness to learn can lead to success, regardless of past setbacks. This is a story about all humans, and we look at examples of remarkable people who have overcome adversity to triumph. The audience can expect a highly engaging session that uses multimedia elements to bring Adam's story to life. Through the use of storytelling, humour, and interactive media, the audience will be taken on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. They will learn about the potential of technology to enable personal growth and to overcome adversity. This keynote is ideal for individuals who are looking for inspiration and motivation to overcome obstacles in their personal or professional lives. It is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to embrace a positive attitude and leverage technology to transform their life. The session will empower the audience to take control of their lives and create their own "step change.
