AI Keynote SpeakerFinn Hillebrandt
Practical AI instead of hype. Talks that do more than impress your audience. They change how people work.

Not learned from articles. Lived in practice.
Two example keynotes that turn observers into doers
These are two examples from my repertoire. I tailor every keynote to your event and audience.
AI Agents: From Assistant to Independent Employee
While many companies are still debating whether to use AI, agents in my business already replace five to six full-time employees. This talk maps the five stages from assistant to independent employee and uses live demos to show what is already possible today.
- What sets an AI agent apart from a chatbot
- The five stages from assistant to independent employee
- Which tasks AI agents already handle reliably today
- The 4-step plan to roll them out in your company

- How AI coding agents automate SEO work
- Which tools and workflows drive the growth
- Live demo: creating and optimizing content with Claude Code
- Concrete numbers and results from 12 months

What sets me apart from other AI speakers
Practitioner, not theorist
I only recommend what I have tested myself and never rely on hearsay.
Honesty instead of hype
I name strengths and limitations of AI equally. Nuanced assessments based on 15 years in the digital economy.
Personal story
As a lifelong stutterer, public speaking was my greatest fear. Today I deliver keynotes whose presentations I build with AI.
Bilingual
German native, English fluent. Real bilingual competence from 15 years of international online work.
Who is this speaker, really?
Behind every number is a story from 15 years of online business and 3 years of intensive AI practice.
Conclusion back then: "In my opinion, machine translation systems are nothing translators need to fear." Looking at DeepL and the like today, I couldn't have been more wrong.
Built multiple six-figure online businesses.
Plant for the Planet. Every AI uses energy.
Weekly emails with tested AI tips.
Full focus on generative AI since ChatGPT's launch.
