My mission is to keep AI systems safe and beneficial for humanity in the short and long term. I believe that we need to empower as many people as possible to participate constructively in the AI discourse. For this reason, I enjoy spreading knowledge about AI and helping people form realistic expectations about AI technology. I think this is important for better decision-making in areas such as business, policy making, and the impact on individuals and society.
Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming industries and society. Recent breakthroughs (such as the large language models that power ChatGPT & Co) are accelerating the disruption. There are exciting new opportunities, but also risks. Some of the choices we make today will have a significant impact on our future lives. We should face this enormous responsibility with a continuous effort to keep AI systems safe and beneficial for humanity in the short and long run.
What I do
Business R&D
Applying AI to business requires a good understanding of AI technology and the business side, but also the vision and curiosity of a scientist. This is not always easy, but highly rewarding. I currently work for the photonics company Jenoptik, where I help building a new central AI team. Together, we are at the forefront of the AI transition in our business.
Speaking
I enjoy giving talks, which I regularly do publicly. If you’re looking for an AI expert who knows how to break things down into common language, I’m here for you. Feel free to contact me!
Writing
Writing has always been a passion of mine. It allows me to connect with others, to learn about the world, and to express myself in a way that transcends any cultural or linguistic barriers. Please take a look at some of my writings and enjoy!
Magic
Magic is probably the most beautiful sideshow of my life. Performing magic allows me to share wonderful moments with people I might never have met otherwise. I love using my magic to bring people together and create new connections in all directions. If you are curious, check out www.galahadmagie.de [German site].
