About Jason Bradbury
Jason Bradbury has an infectious passion for technology and science. A man of natural effervescence, he has been in front of the camera for over twenty years on just about every UK TV channel from Channel 4, to ITV, BBC to Discovery. He started his professional life as one half of a comedy double act with David Walliams, so it is no surprise that Jason brings as much humour to his talks as he does insight.
Jason Bradbury has worked as a TV presenter and producer on hundreds of tech, science and entertainment TV shows in a career spanning almost twenty years. He is also a published author and university lecturer in Product Design.
When it comes to gadgets, science and all things tech, Jason is a force of nature. His own inventions, which include the world’s first working jet-powered hoverboard, have become legendary with viewers of The Gadget Show. He is also a DeLorean Time Machine owner and collector of vintage (mainly 80s) tech.
With an infectious passion for technology and science, Jason brings a natural confidence to his performance on camera rarely seen in factual television and an irrepressible live stage presence. He also boasts impressive comic credentials, developed during his years as a stand-up and performing in a double act with Little Britain star David Walliams.
He is a gadget and technology maestro, a keen collector of ‘exotic’ gizmos and an ardent techno DIY’er. He is a qualified pilot and has showcased his flying skills on many TV shows including BBC’s own ‘Top Gear of the Skies’ ‘The Air Show’ and the award winning Channel 4 Schools series ‘Science in Focus’. Jason’s interest is no mere gadget fetish but a deep interest in understanding and explaining many of modern technology’s key concepts. For ‘The Gadget Show’, Jason regularly designs and builds his own gadgets with projects including a ‘Heads up Display’ (HUD) for his girlfriend’s Nissan Micra; a £1 electronic Lie Detector and the world’s first wireless and wearable Phone Glove. Jason has written the trilogy ‘Dot Robot’ titled ‘Dot Robot’, ‘Atomic Swarm’ with the third and final part; ‘Cyber Gold’.

The AI Decade: Where will Artificial Intelligence take us in the next 10 years? In The AI Decade Jason Bradbury reveals the astonishing impact of machine learning and emergent technologies on everything from daily tasks to the future of work, business strategy, leadership and the ethical landscape of tomorrow.
New for 2024 Jason Bradbury, one of the UK’s most recognisable tech speakers, updates his hugely successful ‘Thousand Year Decade’ speech with a keen focus on AI and emergent technologies. Jason’s new speech offers insightful perspectives on the future of technology, its implications for leadership and business strategy along with the technical, ethical and philosophical implications of the new age of AI.
Jason has been a student of AI for the last fifteen years, tracking its advances across a range of sectors and most recently completing MIT’s Artificial Intelligence: Implications for Business Strategy course. He’s written three teen fiction books about an AI Robot Engineer (Dot Robot – published by Puffin), he’s interviewed AI researchers in Japan and Silicon Valley and at IBM’s New England campus and has a particular interest in the use of machine learning and robotics – he’s even created and trained a robot to perform live stand-up comedy!
While grounded in a rigorous intellectual framework, Jason’s new speech aims to uplift and inspire his audiences and take some of the understandable fear out of the AI question. With his own blend of unquenchable enthusiasm and wit, The AI Decade maps AI’s historical context as well as outfitting audiences with the analytical tools required to predict the course of Artificial Intelligence over the next ten years and beyond.
In ‘30 Days of AI’ Jason entrusts his every daily decision to artificial intelligence – for an entire month. In this fascinating experiment, he explores the potential benefits and risks of the machine learning revolution that is poised to affect how all of us live and work.
Through the examination of this thought-provoking experience, Jason illuminates the intriguing results of everything from mundane tasks – meal planning and workouts – to ambitious pursuits like creating a profitable side business or achieving financial independence – all seen through the prism of deep learning and Artificial Intelligence services.
