Zack Kass

A dynamic, conversation-driven session tailored to the questions that matter most to your audience. Drawing on his experience at the forefront of AI and advising leaders across industries, Zack applies his perspective to the specific forces shaping your organization, industry, and community. From the future of work and education to leadership, economic opportunity, and the societal implications of increasingly capable AI, no two conversations are the same. 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.

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. This talk is followed by an open Q&A session designed to address the specific questions and strategic choices facing your audience today, leaving them with practical frameworks, renewed optimism, and a compelling reason to build the future.

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. This presentation is capped off by a live Q&A where he applies these concepts directly to your sector's pressing challenges, leaving audiences with a clear model for deciding what to automate and what to preserve.
