Biography

Nina Schick is currently one of the world’s biggest names in Generative AI. She is a strategic advisor who guides the world’s political and business leaders through the challenges and opportunities thrown up by artificial intelligence. In 2020 she wrote Deepfakes: The Coming Infocalypse and is one of the best-known speakers on the subject, alongside Deep Mind’s Sir Demis Hassibis, ChatGPT’s Sam Altman and the Godfather of AI, Geoffrey Hinton.

Nina has called AI “a tipping point for humanity” and believes that it will unleash a seismic change in industry, communication and creativity by the end of the decade. She has predicted that by 2025, 90% of content will be AI-generated, seeing the technology as a part of the world’s infrastructure and a crucial building block of the current information ecosystem.

Nina predicted that the use of large language models in generative AI would unleash a seismic change on humanity long before ChatGPT was a household name. She believes that AI is about “people and power,” and that it is already impacting white-collar jobs, the creative industry and scientific research. Nina advises business leaders on how to futureproof their firms and believes that all industries need to evolve on a horizontal scale to deal with AI.

An advocate of responsible AI development, Nina is the founder of Tamang Ventures, which works with firms at the cutting edge of the industry. She is an advisor to video-generation platform Synthesia, as well as Truepic, the global leader in authentication technologies, and sits on the AI Council at Qlik. Nina’s expertise is much sought-after and, as well as keynote speeches at CES, TedX, CogX and WebSummit, Nina’s work has appeared in MIT Tech Review, Wired and Time.

Nina has worked on several political campaigns, including Brexit, the EU migrant crisis, the presidential campaign of Emmanuel Macron and the 2016 and 2020 US presidential campaigns, where her brief was to study electoral interference. She has worked with organisations such as Microsoft, Adobe, DARPA and the UN and world leaders President Joe Biden and Anders Fogh Rasmussen, the former head of NATO. She speaks seven languages and has a Masters in Philosophy from Cambridge University.
