Top AI and Future-of-Work Keynote Speakers for 2027
Almost every agenda for 2027 has an AI slot, and most audiences have already sat through the version that is either hype or fear. What they need now is someone who can explain what AI realistically changes in their work, what it does not, and how to lead people through it.
The top AI and future-of-work keynote speakers for 2027 are Jon Krohn, Jay Kiew, Simon Luthi, Jared Lander, Ramy Nassar, Ryan Vet, Andrea Brown, Mike Evans, Eric Termuende, Cathy Christen, Simoriah Stogner and Erica Dhawan. Some build with AI hands-on; others focus on the people and leadership side of the change.
The AI and future-of-work keynote speakers below range from hands-on data scientists to former Fortune 100 executives and generational futurists. All of them are on the Amplify Speakers roster and available for 2027 events.
The Speakers
How to Choose an AI or Future-of-Work Keynote Speaker
Decide whether you need a technologist or a translator. Technical audiences want a practitioner who builds with AI, like Jon Krohn, Jared Lander or Ramy Nassar. General business audiences usually get more from a translator who makes AI practical, like Andrea Brown or Mike Evans.
Do not forget the people side. Much of the real work of AI adoption is change management, trust and skills. Speakers like Jay Kiew, Cathy Christen and Erica Dhawan focus on how leaders bring their teams through the change.
Ask how current the content is. AI moves fast. Ask finalists how they keep their material up to date and how they will tailor examples to your industry, so the session reflects what your audience is actually facing.
Pair the keynote with something hands-on. A workshop or breakout after an AI keynote helps people try what they heard. For more on matching a speaker to the room, see how to write a keynote speaker brief.
