The wave of synthetic intelligences like AI is a seminal time for humanity. Digital tools not only aid our ability to learn and make decisions, they can replace us with doing these. This raises many important questions such as, the potential for AI to be sentient and conscious, and how advanced synthetic intelligences will impact humanity and the economy. Scott has been addressing these questions and more for many years and brings thought leading ideas and advice to leaders so they can make good strategic decisions today.

Society has spent years reading books and watching movies that paint a dark picture of the impact machine intelligence. We have also hold onto the thought that human intelligence is unique and more advanced than anything computers could ever accomplish. Scott believes there is a much more positive AI future in front of us and this keynote provides both thought leading and practical content that often re-frames how audiences see the future of synthetic intelligence. If you want an inspiring message about the future with AI in it, this is your keynote!

As a technology entrepreneur, he also continually works in the trenches of building his own companies.

Scott is the founding partner of Future Point of View (FPOV), a digital strategy firm based in Oklahoma City. FPOV focuses on architecting world-class digital strategies, and in the process helps clients to raise revenue, lower costs and become leaders in their industry.

BACKGROUND

Scott began his career fresh out of high school, where his job in a new computer division of an office products company was springboard into the world of technology. He became the leaders of their computer sales division and then purchased it as his own company. It was eventually built into a twelve-store operation in three states.

His next endeavor was as founder and CEO of Paragraph, Inc., a Soviet/American joint venture founded in 1988, as this country was just opening up to western business models. Half of the company was sold to Silicon Graphics, and the other half sold as well a few years later.

Scott then collaborated with H.R. Haldeman to publish a diary of his years as the Chief of Staff to President Nixon, which was a bestseller (Putnam Publishing), and involved Sony Interactive in the release of a book companion CD-ROM.

In 1995, Scott started another company named Avant Digital Marketing which was later renamed Webcasts.com. This start-up was an early producer of webcasted media ranging from corporate and government communications to sporting events and entertainment. It was sold in 2000 for $115 million.

In 2007, Scott founded a start-up called Alkami Technology. This company developed a second-generation online banking platform with innovative features non-existent in current systems. In 2021, the company went public valued at $2.9 billion.

Along the way, Scott has participated as a board member with a number of firms. Examples include WeGoLook which sold in 2017 for approximately $40 million and First Fidelity Bank in Oklahoma and Phoenix.
