An early adopter of Artificial Intelligence, Lucas Petty was struck by AI’s unique ability to improve life, and especially business results. A passionate advocate, he founded AI Daddy to educate and inspire others about AI’s potential when properly deployed. Audiences, both eager and fearful, describe his talks as “deeply relevant, moving and actionable.”
From frequent lecturer and viral influencer, Lucas quickly became a go-to resource for those who recognize the imperative of embracing innovation. Leveraging nearly a decade as an operations consultant, Lucas now helps organizations prepare for a world transformed by AI.
At the heart of his AI Daddy approach is a process mapping methodology that identifies a company’s biggest inefficiencies and pain points, leading to a targeted implementation of AI by the people inside the company who know it best. His client list includes Adobe, Semrush, and Jasper as well as non-profits looking to preserve and expand their mission.
For Lucas and AI Daddy, their measure of success is not only what AI can do for organizations, but individuals – helping people reclaim their freedom, express their creativity, and end the day fulfilled by their work. Or as Lucas says, his job is just to make life easier. Like any good daddy.
