About

Pinar Seyhan Demirdag is a globally recognized AI expert, co-founder and CEO of EVRN, and author of the upcoming book The Art of Being Human in the Age of AI. Building on her legacy as an early Google Brain Lab collaborator at the origins of generative AI, she is now leading the internal reprogramming necessary for humans to stay competitive as AI becomes more capable.

“The future won’t be built by AI. It will be built by those who are brave enough to stay human.”

As a keynote speaker, Pinar Seyhan Demirdag answers the question on every professional’s mind: how do I remain relevant in the age of AI? Where most AI speakers teach you to use the machine, Pinar teaches you to stop being one. On stage, she exposes the robotic patterns in which we work, draws a hard line between machine intelligence and human intelligence, and gives every person in the room a practical roadmap for reprogramming their internal algorithms so they can never be replaced by AI. Pinar's talks are designed for knowledge workers in the corporate space, leadership teams, creative industries, educators, and any organization navigating AI transformation that is ready to invest in what no machine can replicate.

More About Pinar Seyhan Demirdag
For millions of learners across the globe, Pinar Seyhan Demirdag is synonymous with artificial intelligence. She is the creator of “What is Generative AI?”, LinkedIn Learning’s #1 bestselling course with over 100,000 5-star reviews and the first professional AI certification issued by Microsoft. She was invited by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang as a featured guest for their 60 Minutes episode, and has taken the stage at Bloomberg, Dell, Canva, LinkedIn, TBWA, Harvard, MIT, and SXSW.

Pinar is the co-founder and CEO of EVRN, one of the first AI-native platforms generating hyper-realistic sets for professional filmmaking. Her work in this space produced the first generative AI visual effects in a feature film and the first AI-driven commercial, which won a D&AD award.

In 2018, Pinar was working as an artist when Google Brain Lab (now DeepMind) approached her with a primitive generative AI tool that was creating images reminiscent of her own body of work. Rather than reacting with fear of replacement or fury about art theft, she responded with an openness and curiosity that led to the creation of Infinite Patterns, one of the first public generative AI art tools. In the years since, Pinar realized the biggest obstacle to human success in the age of AI isn’t technological, it’s internal. Today, she is dedicated to helping audiences uncover the negative belief systems and invisible algorithms holding them back, and rewrite their internal scripts to remain in control of themselves, their machines, and ultimately, their futures.

In a world obsessed with what AI can do, Pinar Seyhan Demirdag is the rare voice asking what humans should become.
