In April 2020, in the apex of the UK lockdown, I had the pleasure of being one of three presenters at online edition of Nerd Nite London. Nerd Nite is a wildly popular global meetup series, with multiple regional chapters. Each chapter is run by volunteers, and the proceeds from ticket sales (after costs) go to local charities. In this sense, lockdown did us an odd favour: normally Nerd Nites are organised in pubs, so there is venue rental cost. This time the venue were our living rooms, so pretty much all the money went to a local foodbank.

I had the pleasure of presenting on one of the topics close to my heart (and mind!), which is the potential for AI to dramatically improve anti-money laundering efforts in financial organisations. You can find the complete recording below.

Enjoy!
