One Woman Show: My Guest Talk on AI at the University of Zurich

One Woman Show. That’s what I called my session at the University of Zurich last week, my second time there this year, and it started with a Press Start button.

Camille Nchakga from Prof. Dr. Nadine Strauß's team, invited me to her BA seminar at the IKMZ, the Institut für Kommunikationswissenschaft und Medienforschung, to talk with communication students about how AI is actually used in communication work, in the real world. I didn’t want to give them another talk about AI. I gave them a show about one woman running a company with it.

They met a 3D version of me, with my real stats (patience with AI hype: 2). Then my office: 8 digital colleagues. The voice writes like me, The designer designs, The bodyguard checks every tool before it touches my computer. And at the end, instead of a quiz, they played a video game I built for them, on their own phones.

One year ago I couldn’t build any of this. Not the presentation, not the game, not the video you’re watching. I learned it in twelve months, with Anthropic Claude Code, in my own brand. No Canva, no developer.

Why so much work for one class? Because people don’t remember slides. They remember what they LIVED.

❗ A training your team forgets costs you twice: the budget and the months people keep using AI exactly as before.

The last line of the show is the one I believe the most: AI let me build a company alone. It never let me work alone. That’s why my credits had a second cast: my development partner, the engineers I work with, my accountant, my clients.

Your team isn’t a class of communication students, and that’s the point. I build the session around the people in the room: a game, a workflow, or a training on the tasks they do every Monday.

If you want this session for your team or your event, send me a message. Next week I’ll show you how I built it.

Thank you Camille Nchakga and Prof. Dr. Nadine Strauß for having me again.
