17:42 TEDx TALK
Thomas Anglero's TEDx talk on why our fear of technology says more about us than about the machines, and why meeting AI with curiosity beats meeting it with dread.
SIGNATURE STAGE MOMENT
At the Oslo Business Forum, Thomas Anglero goes head to head with CNN's Richard Quest on whether AI is real and what it means for jobs, holding the stage with one of the world's best-known broadcasters.
44:28 How will AI change surgery? In this fireside chat at Medtronic's global Luminaite Conference in Las Vegas, Thomas Anglero joins leading spine surgeons Dr Christopher Ames and Dr Jeffrey Gum to discuss what artificial intelligence means for surgeons and patients.
1:33:08 Fireside chat at Medtronic's global Luminaite Conference in Las Vegas, where Thomas Anglero joins leading cranial and brain surgeons to discuss what artificial intelligence means for neurosurgery and patient care.
Thomas joined 650 leaders at Sphere 2024 in Finland to open a conversation most executives avoid: not whether AI and robotics will reshape work, but the speed at which each is maturing, and why the two trajectories will not stay aligned. The keynote reframes robotics as a human story, not a technology story, and challenges the audience to measure their own rate of change against the rate of change around them.
30:27 What can cognitive technology actually do for business? In this keynote at the NHH Symposium in Bergen, Thomas Anglero, then Nordic Director of Innovation at IBM, explains IBM Watson and the early opportunities of artificial intelligence for industry, leadership and people.
23:45 How do organisations actually benefit from artificial intelligence? Thomas Anglero's keynote to more than 850 leaders at the Oslo Business Forum makes the case for AI as a tool for people and leadership, not a threat to them.
2:30:13 Thomas Anglero hosts IBM Norway's flagship Business Connect conference in Oslo and gives a keynote on IBM Watson and what cognitive technology means for business. One of his first big-stage IBM appearances, sharing the stage with the CEO of IBM Norway.
14:13 What is the real future of technology? At Capgemini's Nordic conference, Thomas Anglero and IBM Norway's CTO Loek Vredenberg made their predictions the hard way, in boxing gloves, in a keynote built to be remembered as much as understood.
22:39 Is AI about being artificial, or about intelligence? In this keynote at OsloMet, Thomas Anglero shows how artificial intelligence is reshaping industries as different as HR, accounting, publishing, medicine and aquaculture, and confronts the real barrier to adoption, which is rarely the technology itself.
21:27 What does it actually cost to innovate, and how do you do it from inside a large organisation? In this keynote at DB Schenker's global conference, Thomas Anglero makes the case that innovation starts with innovating yourself before your company.
59:10 Think AI is only for nerds or the young? In this hands-on session, Thomas Anglero shows why artificial intelligence is the easiest technology you will ever use, as simple as having a conversation, with live demos using ChatGPT and Google Gemini to do real, everyday things like explaining medical results in plain English.

15:42 What should startups do with the AI revolution? In this keynote to UNICEF's top startups, Thomas Anglero argues that today's early AI moment looks a lot like the arrival of the first web browser, and that the startups who win are the ones who define a new market and back themselves through the fragile early days.
34:37 Leadership is harder and lonelier than most people admit. In this keynote at LOGIN in Vilnius, Lithuania's largest technology conference, Thomas Anglero makes the case that a leader's mental health is not automatic, it is built, through deliberate time, energy and honest self-care, and that looking after yourself is part of looking after the people you lead.
28:15 Asked how he went from a poor family to a global career, Thomas Anglero explains why poverty is not permanent, how a victim mentality holds people back, and how leaders can support others through hard times and poor mental health. Interviewed by Lithuania's largest news programme ahead of the Login conference in Vilnius.
Thomas founded the IBM Watson AI Lab for Cancer at the Oslo Cancer Cluster, one of the first AI cancer labs on a European cancer campus. These two films are from the announcement and from inside the lab itself.
