Sample talk abstracts.
Starting points. Happy to tailor to your audience and length.
Why voice AI is going to eat phone calls
A 30-minute keynote on what changes when latency drops below a second. Demos, telephony stack, what hard problems remain (turn-taking, barge-in, evals), and a builder-friendly take on what to build next.
- 20 min keynote
- 45 min talk + Q&A
Agents that actually ship
Common failure modes for agentic systems and the patterns that make them production-grade: tool design, eval harnesses, recovery loops, and observability. Less hand-waving, more hands-on.
- 30 min talk
- 90 min workshop
Breaking into AI engineering
For students and early-career devs. The portfolio that gets calls back, the open-source contributions worth your time, and how to ship a small AI side-project that hiring managers will read in full.
- 45 min college session
- 60 min bootcamp
