Talk topic

Generative AI conference: understanding ChatGPT and the revolution underway.

The ideal keynote to give your whole organisation a clear understanding of generative AI — what it is, what it changes, where it creates value and what its limits are. No jargon, with live demonstrations.

What it's about

Generative AI is the technological break of the decade. It still has to be understood.

Since ChatGPT arrived, generative AI is on everyone's lips — yet rarely well understood. Between fascination and worry, between spectacular promises and vague fears, your teams need a clear bearing to tell fact from fiction and know where to start.

This talk sets the record straight: what generative AI really is, how it works in broad strokes (without ever going technical), what it makes possible today and what it still cannot do — all illustrated with telling examples and live demonstrations.

Romain Rissoan turns it into a lively, well-paced, demonstrative moment that converts apprehension into the desire to act. By the end, everyone holds a solid framework to approach generative AI with curiosity, judgement and confidence.

What the room takes away

  • 01A clear understanding of generative AI.
  • 02Concrete, striking use-case examples.
  • 03A lucid reading of limits and risks.
  • 04The urge to get started, without naivety.
On the programme

The key points covered.

A thread that adapts to the duration and the audience.

01

Understand without jargon

What generative AI really is, where it comes from and why it is exploding now. We start from zero, with no technical prerequisites, so everyone leaves with an accurate picture of the technology, free of myths and shortcuts.

02

Live demonstrations

The highlight of the talk: watching AI produce text, images, analyses and ideas in real time before our eyes. Nothing beats a live demo to make the subject tangible and spark realisations.

03

The use cases that matter

Beyond the wow effect, which use cases truly add value, role by role? Marketing, sales, support, HR, legal: the talk shows where generative AI really saves time and lifts quality, and how to tell useful uses from gimmicks.

04

Limits & vigilance

Hallucinations, bias, data confidentiality, critical thinking: we tackle the limits and risks head-on, to install the right reflexes and the guardrails needed to use these tools responsibly at work.

05

And tomorrow?

Towards AI agents, task automation and integration into everyday tools: the talk gives a lucid preview of what is coming, to help the organisation anticipate rather than endure the next wave.

06

Taking action

How to bring your organisation on board, concretely? First use cases, upskilling, governance, change management: the talk ends on immediately actionable steps, suited to the company's maturity.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is generative AI?
Generative AI is a category of artificial intelligence able to produce new content — text, image, code, sound, video — from a simple natural-language instruction. ChatGPT is the best-known example, but the ecosystem is far wider. The talk explains it simply, with no technical prerequisites, using live demonstrations to make the mechanics understandable to everyone.
Who is this talk for?
For every corporate audience: executives, managers and operational teams, whatever their familiarity with the subject. The message is deliberately accessible, with no technical prerequisites, and the examples are tailored to your sector. It is an ideal keynote to build a shared AI culture across a whole organisation.
Does the talk include live demonstrations?
Yes, and it is one of its strengths. Romain Rissoan gladly illustrates his points with live demos of generative AI tools — text and image generation, document analysis. Seeing the technology at work in real time makes the talk concrete, memorable and far more convincing than a purely theoretical presentation.
