Artificial intelligence in France: from national ambition to decisions at work

France is pressing businesses to move from curiosity to practical use. The government’s Osez l’IA plan combines training, diagnostics and support for companies. Anyone looking for a keynote speaker artificial intelligence France therefore needs more than a parade of new tools. People need a useful way to judge what matters for their jobs, customers and organization.

The CNIL’s recommendations for AI systems add privacy and responsible development to that discussion. Jan Ditgen turns policy and technology into practical questions, clear examples and live demonstrations. The keynote can be delivered in English or German for corporate events in France.

Jan Ditgen’s route from hands-on testing to two books on AI

With “The AI Compass” he put a guide for newcomers on the shelf, and a second book followed. He judges the technology the way working people encounter it. On some days he sits with a founder; on others he leads the AI specialist group at the German Speakers Association.

He keeps his knowledge fresh by trying tools every day. That experience becomes explanations without jargon and examples an audience can examine for itself.

Testimonial from Markus Wedig

Jan Ditgen specifically emphasized the importance of data protection for us as tax advisors and all related professions—in other words, do not upload clients’ financial data to ChatGPT. This is the biggest pitfall in our industry when we want to use AI to automate and improve our work.

A quality marker built on paid stage work

Have you seen the letters CSP before? Many European organizers have not, although they are useful when checking a professional speaker. CSP stands for Certified Speaking Professional.

The National Speakers Association in the United States reviews paid engagements, client feedback and a recorded talk. The credential cannot be bought. It reflects professional experience and verified quality.

What the current AI wave means for the next working day

Artificial intelligence is redrawing business and daily life rather than passing through as a fad. The border between professional and private use has nearly vanished. A grasp of the basics is useful for almost everyone.

When an organization changes how people work, employees want an honest answer about what shifts in their own week. A keynote gives a mixed audience shared language, concrete examples and calmer judgment about what comes next.
