Talks & stages

Give people a shared language for what AI changes.

For organizations, executive committees, universities, and events, a talk puts AI’s concrete effects up for discussion: who verifies, who decides, who recovers, and under what conditions.

Prepared talks — grounded in real work.

The point

Out of the hype, into real work.

The talk sells neither fear nor magic. It puts AI back in its place: an object of work that has to be decided on, together, from what actually happens in the activity.

  • What AI changes in work, situation by situation
  • Who verifies, who decides, who takes back control
  • A shared vocabulary to open the debate, not close it
Is AI going to replace what we do?
The real question isn’t replacement: it’s who verifies, who decides, who takes back control when AI gets it wrong.
Concretely, what does it change in the work?
It shifts the load, the vigilance, and the responsibility. We look at where, on recent field situations.
And what do we keep control over?
Everything that carries responsibility. The talk makes that discussable — it doesn’t decide for you.

Preparation

A prepared talk, not a generic slide deck.

Calibrate the audience, start from recent field situations, build a shared vocabulary, then prepare the questions that open the debate rather than close it.

  • Calibrated audience: leaders, HR, prevention, field teams
  • Three recent field situations instead of slides
  • Angle: responsibility, decision, taking back control

  • Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne
  • Préventica Rennes, Foire Agricole de Bras-Panon
