2026 themes

What an AI talk by Douglas Moreau covers

Each session is built with the organiser from these themes, according to the sector, the level of AI maturity and the goal of the event.

Generative AI and productivity

What ChatGPT and its successors actually change in day-to-day work: where the gains are, where the illusions are.

AI agents and agentic AI

From assistants that answer to agents that act: an AI takes on a task and builds the tool it needs to complete it. Live demonstration when the format allows.

The future of work and changing jobs

Which jobs are affected first, how teams are reshaped, what managers and HR directors need to do.

AI strategy for executive committees and boards

Set priorities, decide within 90 days, avoid pilot projects that lead nowhere.

Governance, the AI Act and risk

The European framework, accountability, trust, bias and security: what an executive needs to know without becoming a lawyer.

Sovereignty: France and Europe in the global race

Why Europe is falling behind, what is still open, how a European company positions itself.

Superintelligence and the exponential trajectory

What the labs are saying, what to take from it to decide today, without alarmism or naivety.

Software in the age of AI

For software vendors and technology partners: what becomes a commodity, what remains a defensible advantage.

  2. During. The talk, a live demonstration when the format allows, Q&A.
  3. After. Slide deck if included in the quote; for seminars and workshops, a summary or a roadmap.

FAQ

Common questions about AI talks for companies

What is the ideal length for a corporate AI talk?

For a plenary, a 30 to 45 minute keynote, up to 90 minutes with the Q&A that follows. For an executive committee, a two-hour seminar or workshop leaves time to work on the company's own cases.

Does Douglas Moreau speak in English?

Yes. He speaks in English and French, in France and internationally. His keynote "The Last Human Decision" was delivered in English at TEDxÉcolePolytechnique on 12 May 2026.

How large an audience can he address?

From twelve participants in a closed-door executive workshop to 2,500 people in a plenary, the size reached at the Zénith de Paris.

Are there live AI demonstrations?

Yes, when the format allows. The talk « Quand l'IA passe à l'action » ("When AI takes action"), on the programme of the Econocom Innovation Day on 15 October 2026, is built around a live demonstration of an AI that takes on a task and builds the tool it needs.

Talk or training?

A talk helps people understand and decide; it does not replace certified training. To get a team producing, the two-hour workshop with practical cases is the right format.
