WHO SHARES THIS

I share what I use every week, not what I read in a book.

I lead an AI company operating in 11 countries and have been an AI advisor to the European Commission since 2016. I speak about this on stages such as AI Horizons Lisbon and bizSupply UPSIDE, and was a guest on Bitalk to talk about AI.
