Bob Hutchins, Ph.D. • Keynote Speaker • AI Literacy Consultant • Researcher
From a 20+ year career in tech and branding, running a Nashville agency (2001–2017) to earning an M.A. in Behavioral & Organizational Psychology and a Ph.D. focused on the question: what is AI, really?
AS FEATURED IN
I built and led a Nashville-based agency from 2001 to 2017, helping organizations communicate with clarity and connect with the people who matter.
My M.A. in Behavioral & Organizational Psychology changed everything. It rewired how I saw people, teams, and systems, and how I helped more than 100 companies grow with purpose.
That path led to a deeper question: what IS this technology, and what is it doing to us? I study how AI is reshaping creativity, authorship, attention, selfhood, and meaning-making in ways we’re only beginning to understand.
Today, I advise leaders, agencies, and school districts on AI strategy and literacy. I also speak. Keynotes and workshops that challenge assumptions, spark better questions, and keep humanity at the center of innovation.
