Honoured to have the opportunity to work with you Cassius Naylor and Jose-Luiz Moura on the Outvertising AI Taskforce. Your panel positioned the topic brilliantly, particularly that we are all the personal "I"s in AI and we have the opportunity to ensure that its outputs represent us. Congratulations to Chris Dunne and the whole team who delivered a superlative event.

Now that I've descended from the giddy high (and subsequently intense hangover) of Outvertising Live on Thursday, and having received the amazing photos taken by Bronac McNeill, I can now say- WOW what a day that was! I couldn't be more grateful to have shared the stage with the inimitable Deborah Womack, Laura Jordan Bambach and Sandra Masiliso for our discussion of generative AI in advertising, the risks and opportunities therein. It was a gift to have been able to tap their insight on the key elements of building fairness for LGBTQ+ people into the way that this technology is deployed in our industry: - High-quality and representative data - Investment in interdisciplinary skill-building for AI practitioners - Work cultures that involve LGBTQ+ people in decision-making and break down silos between technical and non-technical teams Outvertising's AI Taskforce (myself, Scott Stockwell and Jose-Luiz Moura) will capture this in our forthcoming industry guidance on the subject, so keep an eye on our channels and our resources page on outvertising.org. Credit to the powerhouse Outvertising team who pulled this all together (in their spare time no less): Events Director Kat M., newly minted COO Ceri Parkes-Brincat, the commercial powerhouse of Daniel Sinclair and Luke Millican, comms supremos Anthony Leeds and Sonnie S., and of course our Great Leader Chris Dunne. Not to mention the fascinating sessions conducted by Rodney Collins PhD, Russie M., Andrew Tindall and all of their speakers, the team behind E45's 'This Is Me, This Is My Space' campaign, the tremendous closing act of Asad Shaykh, as well as the AV and front-of-house teams at Meta. Plaudits, plaudits, plaudits all around 👏 👏
