AI Will Shake You

Shakespeare is pop, like AI.

Shakespeare explained his age to everyone. AI is changing ours, and almost no one is explaining it. One scene, one question, every Wednesday: when AI arrives, what stays human?

About the series

Why Shakespeare, why AI

A penny got you into the Globe. Shakespeare wrote for everyone, and his plays explained a changing age to the people living through it. AI is changing ours, and most of the explaining is still left to specialists.

AI Will Shake You takes one scene a week and asks one question: when AI arrives, what stays human? No jargon, no hype. A play, a line, and what it tells us about working with machines that talk.

Who writes it

Mauro Fazzari. Years on stage, in Italy and in France, taught me that nothing goes as rehearsed: you listen, and you adapt in real time. I took that into sales, where the pitch is the script and the deal is in how you react. Today I help businesses put AI to work: data they can trust, clear limits, people who answer for the result. YouWill, the Shakespeare coach below, is where I play with it first.

The app behind the stage

Bring a doubt. Leave with a scene.

A Shakespeare coach in your pocket. Clear a doubt with AI, keep a journal, play, discover the plays. Jaques shows you around.
