speaking & the lab
Come and say hello
Neural Smash is what I do alongside my day job: writing, the odd talk, and building things in public. If any of it's useful to you, I'd love to hear from you.
Speaking
I take on a handful of talks and panels each year, on AI, trust and authenticity. Most recently at the NAFD Conference 2025. Things I tend to talk about:
- AI isn't the risk, dependency is
- Authenticity when anything can be faked
- A2G2: the four stages of AI adoption
- The transcribed zone: always-on AI at work

The Lab
Where I build working AI systems and show the workings: automated pipelines, voice and video experiments, and the occasional glorious failure.
- Workflow automation with n8n and the Claude API
- AI video, claymation-style, for emotional storytelling
- Write-ups landing here as they're ready
Just want to chat?
About AI, something I wrote, or something you're building. I read everything myself.
