Signature keynotesNo hype, no doom. Four talks with one idea: what we choose matters more than what machines can do.
Keynote 01Intelligent Transformation
While most organizations focus on deploying new tools, intelligent transformation requires a more fundamental question: what becomes possible when intelligence is no longer the constraint? Drawing on years spent advising Fortune 500 executives navigating AI adoption, Zack explores how leaders can rethink not only how work gets done, but where people create value, and what their organizations can become. He addresses the professional identity shifts that make transformation difficult and shows leaders how to build trust, accountability, and agency with their teams.
Keynote 02The Automation Boundary
If you could automate everything in your life and business, where would you stop? Zack introduces the Automation Boundary, a framework for distinguishing between the friction that holds us back and the friction that helps us grow. Rather than asking what AI can automate, he explores what it should and should not, and why the answer will shape the future of work, education, relationships, and society.
Keynote 03The Next Renaissance
AI is the most powerful tool we’ve ever built for expanding human potential and human flourishing. But that outcome isn’t guaranteed. Rather than painting a utopian or dystopian future, Zack draws on 15+ years at the frontier of AI to demonstrate how technology expands what’s possible, but human choice determines where it leads.
Fireside chatThe Intelligence Briefing

Moderated by a host or driven directly by audience questions, the session gives participants the opportunity to explore the issues most relevant to them and hear Zack think through what they mean in real time.
