Presenter: Mick Seddon

What you will learn:

  • The Overload Problem: Why the challenge isn't capability, but the sheer volume of regulation and how AI fixes the research bottleneck.
  • Interpretation vs. Automation: How to use AI to translate "what this says" into "what this means," without letting it make decisions for you.
  • Structuring Insight: Using AI to instantly draft client notes, meeting prompts, and diagnostic checklists that structure your advice.
  • The Guardrails: Clear rules on where human judgement must stay in the loop—covering accuracy, evidence, and sign-off.

Agenda

  1. The Context: Why clients now expect "early warnings"
  2. The Signals: What counts as useful vs. noise
  3. The Workflow: Research → Summarise → Interpret → Output
  4. The Demo: Working through a live regulatory example
  5. The Safety Check: Verifying claims and retaining accountability

The Advisory AI Workflow

AI works best as a "structuring engine," not a decision maker. We will walk through this repeatable flow to turn complex inputs into client-ready advice.

1

Research

Orient Fast: Use AI to surface relevant regulations, standards, and sector-specific expectations so you don't start from a blank page.

2

Summarise

Condense Noise: Turn dense policy documents and consultation responses into clear, usable summaries that highlight the key points.

3

Interpret

Add Meaning: The most crucial step—translating "generic rules" into "client impact" and identifying risks vs. opportunities.

4

Output

Structure It: Use AI to format your thinking into meeting prompts, benchmarks, or diagnostics ready for client conversations.

"If AI gives you an answer you can't explain, you shouldn't be using it."

This session isn't about automating your advice away. It's about recovering the time you currently spend on research and formatting, so you can focus on the judgement that clients actually pay for.
