Practical AI

The Team Behind Practical AI

We build practical AI tools for a living, and we use them every day in our own work.

Bernard Wright has been building practical digital tools for almost two decades. He cofounded an AI startup which predicted national harvests for commodity traders to price deals in 18 countries, built transgovernmental intelligence systems to tackle mountain gorilla poaching, and tracked pirates by satellite for the UN. He has tasked satellites to monitor deforestation, flown drones for flood management, run underwater sonar surveys on the Nile for conservation, and flown aerial surveys for carbon projects.

Clients include German federal government agencies, the World Bank, Dublin City Council (where he built 3D digital twins used for emergency response planning), engineering corporates, financial institutions, SMEs, and non profits like the National Geographic Foundation.

He's been using AI since his Fieldy days, and now uses it daily, with far more impact than ever, including running his own bone broth brand alongside everything else. People keep asking him how he does it, which is why he's setting up this course.

He lives in Hilversum with his Dutch wife and two kids and is enjoying working on more local projects.

“I think AI can exponentially benefit a business, but only if you actually know how to use it. That's what this course is for.”
