Speaking & media
Invited lectures, conference talks, podcasts and broadcast appearances, on what AI changes in how people learn and decide, in schools and at work.
Topics
Growing up inside algorithmic worlds
How identity and autonomy form during adolescence inside systems that watch and predict, and what this changes for schools and families, and for the young people themselves.
For education conferences, policy audiences and parent organisations.
AI in education: what the technology can and cannot do
What AI tutors and learning platforms do well, where they limit what young people do for themselves, and what teachers can do about it.
For schools, university leadership and ed-tech teams.
Designing for agency
Practical principles for building or buying systems that young people will use, and the difference between keeping them engaged and keeping them well.
For product teams, regulators and school leaders.
Attention, trust and the digital home
How attention and emotional regulation develop in households where every member sits inside the same algorithmic feeds.
For lay and parent audiences, and clinicians.
Adopting AI without losing judgement
Based on my work with companies adopting generative AI since 2025: what employees learn when AI does part of their job, and which skills they stop practising.
For leadership teams and learning and development functions.
