Stage Introduction · 30 seconds

Our next speaker is not here to predict the future of AI. He is here to tell you what it actually costs, because he is building it right now. He is the CEO of BotMakers, a division of publicly traded BioQuest, where his team has delivered more than fifty enterprise AI deployments across a dozen industries. He is here to tell us what works, what does not, and what to do about it on Monday. Please welcome Trent T. Daniel, The AI CEO.

Trent T. Daniel is the chief executive of BotMakers, Inc., a division of publicly traded BioQuest, Inc. (BQST), and an entrepreneur who has built and sold technology for most of his career. He is a working operator who speaks, rather than a full-time speaker, and his team designs and ships custom AI systems for corporations, government agencies, law firms, nonprofits and public companies.

That combination is what he teaches from. As a chief executive he has sat on both sides of the table: approving AI budgets and defending them, and being pitched by vendors whose demos do not survive contact with a real workflow. He has educated executive committees on what to fund and what to refuse, and trained the teams underneath them on how the work actually changes. He speaks as someone who has signed the checks, been burned, and learned to tell the difference between a tool and a trick.

His track record is not theoretical, and it did not start with AI. He helped build the One World Doll Project into a major toy brand that debuted in more than 3,000 Walmart stores. He co-authored his first book, Situation 101: Finances, with legendary television actress Bern Nadette Stanis. He hosted morning radio at two Houston stations and served as executive producer of The Makeover, a Houston magazine and television show. He then developed an application and secured a multi-year, multi-million dollar agreement with Zinnia, the platform behind over $193 billion in annuity sales.

Today he has built and launched four AI products, delivered more than fifty enterprise deployments across a dozen industries, and trained audiences from the executive committee down to the front desk. Consumer products, publishing, broadcast, media, enterprise software, artificial intelligence: six industries, one method.

The message does not change with the room: the organizations that win with AI are not the ones with the biggest budget or the flashiest vendor. They are the ones who picked the right first problem, refused the gimmicks, and stayed with it.
