Antonio Weiss is one of the UK’s leading voices on artificial intelligence.
He is Senior Partner at The PSC, a consultancy specialising in public sector transformation, and was a Senior Adviser on Technology to the office of the incoming UK Prime Minister.
He is an Affiliated Researcher at Cambridge’s Bennett School for Public Policy and a member of the Government Digital Service Responsible AI Advisory Panel.
Antonio Weiss has written five books, three of which were for the Financial Times, including AI Demystified (a #1 business bestseller) and The Practical Guide to Digital Transformation, and holds a PhD on the relationship between management consultancy and the British state. He was also an elected councillor in London for 12 years.
Antonio helps leaders regain agency in the age of AI. At a moment when the technology can leave even senior people feeling swept along, his sessions give them the understanding to grasp what AI really does, the judgement to decide what to do with it, and the confidence to direct it rather than be directed by it.
He avoids jargon and hype, and shows leaders how to make their own calls rather than defer to vendors or the loudest voice in the room. Audiences leave clearer about the choices in front of them and ready to act.
AI can make even experienced leaders feel like passengers, swept along by hype, vendors and the pace of change. Antonio argues the opposite is possible. With the right understanding and the right questions, leaders can take back control and shape how the technology is used in their organisation. A practical talk about staying in charge of decisions that matter.
You cannot direct what you do not understand. In this jargon-free guide to what AI actually is and does, Antonio strips away both the hype and the fear, giving leaders the clear grasp of the technology they need to make their own judgements rather than take others’ on trust. Based on his book of the same name.
A clear thinker who deeply understands both the technology and its effects, Weiss offers AI insights that go beyond the hype and provide practical support to business leaders looking to navigate the complex new world.
Antonio delivered a truly awe-inspiring and engaging keynote to our top 230 leaders on demystifying AI. Our leaders were raving about the insight and inspiration provided and the thought-provoking conversations that followed. Thank you again Antonio.
