Adopt AI Talks

AI adoption is a question of teams before tools“My dream is to make this event a recurring Davos of artificial intelligence that comes back every year to the Grand Palais.”Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Deep Talk episode brings together Damien Gromier, Founder & CEO of Adopt AI, and Emma Sezen, Cofounder AI for Finance & Director of Partnerships for Adopt AI, in a conversation led by Rémi Tibi, Founder & CEO of Yunik. They look back on ten years of AI summits, from hackathons inside large groups to the first edition at the Grand Palais, and explain what the next edition will change.Why do so many companies invest in AI tools, when the reason most of them give for holding back is a lack of people who know how to use them?Content sourced from operational teams, venues where internal teams finally meet, 40 country delegations, Aramco Ventures choosing Paris and a manifesto on AI adoption co-written with Anne Bouverot. Listen to discover why the founders want Adopt AI to return every year as the meeting point for CEOs on AI.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

AI looks different from every founder's desk"What I find interesting is asking them each time what they have in mind, how they see the world in 10 or 20 years."Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Adopt AI Talks episode features Guillaume Grallet, high-tech reporter and author of Pionniers (Grasset), in a conversation led by Damien Gromier, Founder & CEO of Adopt AI. Together they look at what AI pioneers have in mind, from Sam Altman and Demis Hassabis to researchers in Dakar and Kigali. They also ask what those visions mean for work, education and adoption.Why does the debate on AI so often sound like one story, when the people building it disagree on almost everything, from model size to what our children should learn?A Nobel Prize in Chemistry for AlphaFold, a 0.4-billion-parameter model for African languages that runs on a laptop, a founder waiting for brain implants before having children and a school without foreign language classes. Listen to discover why taking hold of AI is the best way to tame it.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

"One of the things we as a technology ecosystem have achieved over the last 15 years of digital transformation of healthcare is somehow breaking the human touch between the doctor and the patient." Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Tech Anatomy episode brings together Jan Beger, Global Head of AI Advocacy at GE Healthcare, in a conversation led by Anca Petre.Medical data doubles every 72 days. Radiology has led healthcare AI adoption for over a decade, yet day-to-day use on the ward remains low. Patients already rate chatbot responses as more empathetic than their physician's. Ambient AI scribes, a simple Excel inventory revealing hospitals already use AI they don't know about, and the two converging technologies Beger calls healthcare's 2025 tipping point.Listen to discover why he believes the real barrier to AI in hospitals isn't the algorithm, it's AI literacy.Hosted on Ausha.

"We are not yet able to reproduce the flair of a human driver."Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Deep Talk episode brings together Stéphane Timpano, CEO of Aspire, in a conversation led by Rémi Tibi, Founder & CEO of Yunik. Together they examine what happens when autonomous systems leave controlled routes and are asked to perform at the limit, on a circuit, against a former Formula 1 driver and in front of an audience.Why does the global conversation still argue about how fast AI is progressing, when a programme in Abu Dhabi has published the exact size of the gap every year since 2022?Three and a half minutes, then nine seconds, then one second. Super Formula cars at more than 300 km/h with 13 sensors and an empty seat. A drone race at 35 metres per second where a world champion lost at the final gate. Listen to discover why Aspire builds a race track when it wants a credible answer about autonomous mobility.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

AI stops being a destination the moment someone names the problem"AI is no longer a destination. It is understood as a means and that is a real change."Recorded live at Adopt AI - Grand Palais 2025, this Deep Talk episode brings together François-Xavier Pierrel, Group Chief Data & Adtech Officer at TF1, in a conversation led by Rémi Tibi, Founder & CEO of Yunik. Together they examine what actually changed at Europe's leading commercial broadcaster once generative models moved from experiment to production and once agentic AI arrived to reopen questions the group thought were settled.Why does the global conversation keep asking whether companies are doing enough AI, when the organisations making real progress have quietly stopped asking that question at all?Twenty six million user profiles, more than seventy screens serving advertising, around forty campaign dimensions now queried in plain language by sales teams who never learned SQL. Add the arrival of AdCP, a protocol that could let agents negotiate media deals still closed by phone today. Listen to discover why TF1 treats AI as the shortest path to a named problem rather than a programme in its own right.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
