Speaker Elin Hauge is a futurist, artificial intelligence expert, and business strategist. With her background from mathematics, physics, and business, Elin brings new and thought-provoking perspectives to familiar problems and connects the dots between the pragmatic here-and-now and the bigger picture of the future. Her talks span from value creation for business and society to responsible and sustainable application of algorithms and digital technologies.

Why you should book speaker Elin Hauge:

  • She provides a fundamental understanding for the company’s success. Speaker Elin speaks on the complexities and the advantages of how Artificial Intelligence can appropriately optimize your company.
  • She ties futurist ideas into overall essential development. Elin provides keynotes to understand how implementing AI into your organization breeds many innovative and developmental practices.
  • She connects proposals of business strategies with the use of AI while optimistically demystifying AI myths for overall expansion.

Speaker Elin Hauge believes that artificial intelligence should be at the forefront of every leaders’ mind; because it will fundamentally change your business, significantly impact your life, and play an essential role in the sustainable future of our societies.

Artificial intelligence is probably the most disruptive technological development in human history. It is ubiquitous, from the face recognition on your smartphone to advanced public surveillance, from food production to medical research, from online shopping to human-like text and image creators. According to Elin Hauge, understanding the basics of artificial intelligence should be as compulsory for any leader in 2023 as having a computer.

Speaker Elin Hauge has built bridges between business and data-driven technologies for more than 20 years, with AI as her main area of expertise. Through her work with business leaders and tech entrepreneurs, she has developed an exceptional ability to connect the dots between business strategy and the application of AI. She brings new perspectives to known challenges, relentlessly demystifying jargon and buzz words, and is always three steps ahead with her perspectives on sustainability, responsibility, and disruption. She has a humoristic, down-to-earth, and pragmatic approach to what is actually possible with AI here and now, what is responsible to do in the context of both your company and the society, and what you as decision-maker need to understand to make the right decisions. She then takes the futurist perspective, looking five steps ahead at the potential scenarios and future outcomes, challenging our beliefs and points-of view. She systematically brings in the human perspective; “the future of artificial intelligence is not human-less, it’s human more.”

In her talks, she provides tangible and well-grounded recommendations for how to reap real benefits with AI, how to comply with regulations, and how to make AI an integral and sustainable part of your business or organization.

Elin Hauge holds an MEng in Biophysics and Medical Technology and an MSc in Management Science and Operational Research. Her strong academic background in mathematics and physics, combined with broad business experience, provides a rock-solid foundation for her perspectives on the revolutionary opportunities and complex challenges with and around artificial intelligence.

Busting the myths about AI, and building the bridge to real value for business and society

Are you tired of hearing about a distant future where robots rule the world, humans are mere servants, and we are all subject to the whims of a ubiquitous artificial intelligence?

Let’s put those nasty fairy tales aside for now and discuss what is possible here and now. Let’s talk about how mathematics applied to large amounts of data can automate processes, completely change how you do business, and fuel innovation of new products and services. As a business leader and decision-maker, having a basic understanding of artificial intelligence should be as compulsory as having access to a computer.

Audience takeaways:

  • Concrete understanding of what artificial intelligence actually entails, including references to and explanations of recent developments.
  • Real-life examples that are relevant for your industry.
  • Recommendations for what you as a leader and decision-maker should focus on to realize value from AI applications, ensure responsible application, and make AI an integral part of your business

Trustworthy AI - an oxymoron?

Artificial intelligence is probably the most disruptive technological development in human history, and it is ubiquitous; from the face recognition on your smartphone to advanced public surveillance, from food production to medical research, from online shopping to human-like image and text generators. In addition, other emerging technologies such as the internet of things, blockchain, and virtual reality complement and interact with artificial intelligence to create even more immersive, complex, and disruptive products and services.

Most business professionals think that AI is really exciting and cool. However, when confronted with our willingness to trust algorithms to make decisions about ourselves and on our behalf, we become much more reluctant and sceptical. How can companies approach the collection and algorithmic use of data in a way that builds and maintains trust? How can compliance with new AI regulations be ensured? And how can we navigate in a digital world where the borders between real and fake are continuously challenged?

Audience takeaways:

  • Concrete understanding of what artificial intelligence and other new technologies actually entail, including references to and explanations of recent developments.
  • Pragmatic overview of the new AI Act from the EU Commission (still on proposal stage per Jan’23)
  • Recommendations for how to close the trust gap between humans and algorithms

Metaverse - Friend, foe, or a stone in your shoe?

As the physical world in 2021 was occupied with the COVID pandemic, the Metaverse became the new kid on the block in the digital world. Although Zuckerberg was given the dubious honor of coing the term ‘Metaverse’, this new digital paradigm is, the Metaverse is way more than Facebook on speed and steroids. It is often referred to as the next generation internet, where gaming, virtual realities, and social media meet blockchain and decentralized economies. But why should you as a business leader care? And should you be excited or scared? Should you start creating your avatar or turn the computer off and take a walk in the forest?

In this talk, Elin will demystify some of the jargon, and give an overview of what the Metaverse is (and is not). She will share her perspectives on exciting opportunities and challenging concerns, and why you as a business leader and citizen should care. And what, if any, action you may need to take.

Audience takeaways:

  • Understanding of the main technologies and players involved
  • Realistic perspective on opportunities and what may lie ahead
  • Tangible reasons for why and how business leaders should care

Elin talked to us about artificial intelligence. She has a deep knowledge of this and explains to you what this is, and what it entails in a popular way that makes you understand what it takes to get started. Excellent speaker with good communication skills. Recommended!

I heard Elin talk about leadership in the age of technology at a breakfast seminar. Elin managed, with an excellent presentation, to clarify some key concepts around AI and machine learning and at the same time inspire, reassure and challenge those present (mostly leaders) about how management should be practiced in the future. I think many experienced that this was a useful session.
