Everyone has AI.

Speaker Intro Slide

The AI Mindset

“

AI doesn’t replace your brainpower — it handles the tedious work so you can put it to better use.

Justin Flitter · newzealand.ai

Quote Slide

The Moment We’re In

“

“This is the year AI stopped being a slideshow and starts getting things done.”

Quote Slide

AI Everywhere

Three ways AI is impacting us every day.

Language

LLMs you can ask questions, research topics, and delegate tasks to.

Voice

Takes and receives calls, listens for multi-lingual instructions, so your business speaks every language, 24/7.

Vision

AI that sees. From CCTV safety monitoring, to Meta glasses and self-driving vehicles — the world becomes data.

Keynote Slide

AI for Business — Real World NZ Example

Computer Vision at work — right here in New Zealand.

Inviol — AI Safety

Plugs into existing CCTV. Detects H&S risks in real-time. Turns footage into coaching moments automatically. No extra cameras required.

Two Insights

Before we go anywhere — know these.

AI capability is doubling every 7 months.

The gap between those moving now and those waiting is compounding faster than any previous technology wave.

88% of companies use AI. Only 39% see results.

The problem isn't access to AI. It's how organisations are structured to use it. That's exactly what today is about.

Keynote Slide

Paradigm Shift

From asking to delegating.

2025 — Ask & Act

Ask AI to research a topic. Read the output. Decide what to do with it. Do it yourself.

2026 — Delegate & Done

AI researches, synthesises, and delivers a briefing, presentation, sales collateral, or social post. You review. That's it.

Keynote Slide

🧍

AI for me.

Mindset · Personal life · Everyday moments

Section Slide

AI for Me — Mindset

Where to use AI everyday.

AI isn't just for work. The most powerful shift starts when you stop seeing it as a business tool and start treating it as a personal thinking partner.

Start curious

Ask AI anything you'd normally Google. Then go deeper with follow-up questions.

Lighten the load

Planning, scheduling, remembering — let AI carry the mental weight so you're free to be present.

Be a better human

Better parent. Better coach. Better partner. AI gives you research, reminders and perspective at the right moment.

Keynote Slide

AI for Me — NZ App Spotlight

Meet PAM — the AI taking family admin off your shoulders.

PAM

Personal Admin Manager • NZ-founded

AI doesn’t replace your relationships — it frees up the mental bandwidth to be more present in them.

“

“Stop treating AI like a search engine. Start treating it like the smartest contractor you’ve ever hired.”

Quote Slide

AI for Work — Approach

Build a Context Engine, not just a chat habit.

Your AI assistant is only as smart as the context you give it. Advanced users aren't using better AI — they're feeding it better information.

AI for Work — Delegation

What can you delegate to AI?

We've moved from “ask AI a question” to “delegate a workflow and come back when it's done.” Think like a manager, not a typist.

High-value tasks to delegate

Summarising long or complex documents
Curating content for reports and proposals
Completing the next task from meeting notes

Next-level agentic tasks

Board Pack Workflow — Agent collects and packages content from multiple sources
After Hours PA — Voice Agent that answers emails and calls when you’re OOO
Proposal Producer — Builds interactive proposals from a voice prompt

Culture · Strategy · Governance

Section Slide

AI for Business — Culture

The culture that wins with AI.

Technology adoption has always been a culture game. AI is no different. You can buy the tools — you can't buy the mindset.

Curiosity

Critical Thinking

Practical Guidelines

Essential Skills

Keynote Slide

AI Adoption Challenges

Organisations are stuck between experimentation and scale.

Individual tools. Inconsistent outputs. Knowledge trapped in whoever happens to be using AI that day. That's AI theatre. It looks productive. It doesn't move a metric.

Individual experimentation

Policies and basic training

Scattered tool adoption

Keynote Slide

AI for Business — Operating System

Your whole team. One AI operating system. Consistent results.

Your methodology, brand voice, and workflows encoded into a single shared AI environment. Connected. Governed. Improving monthly.

Keynote Slide

🚀

The tools are ready...
are you?

AI won't replace the curious, the critical thinkers, and the boldly human. It will make them extraordinary. You can take the lead — if you decide to move.
