Talks

I really like to talk about science, music, and anything I'm passionate about. I often tell jokes during talks, sometimes people laugh. Invite me! :)

Nov 15, 2025 Towards Moroccan Sovereignty in the Era of Artificial Intelligence & Cybersecurity

I was invited by the Rotary in Dakhla, Morocco, to talk about the current geopolitical stakes and opportunities in the AI industry, and how Morocco should establish forms of Sovereignty, Independance and Leadership in such a fast-paced and technically-challenging industry. The discussion panel was shared with some important industry leaders in Morocco, such as Youssef Alaoui, Taieb Debbagh, Hicham Faik and Mehdi Kettani.
