Speaker Bio
Adam Pingel (LinkedIn, GitHub) is IBM's Head of Open Tools and Applications for the AI Alliance. Adam has been fascinated by AI and chatbots since playing with Racter in the 80’s. But the “winters” were long and frequent. The stars aligned in 2015 when he became VPE at Ravel Law. Ravel was building AI-powered tools for the legal industry and was working with Harvard Law School on what is now known as the Caselaw Access Project. After an acquisition by LexisNexis in 2017, he moved his family to Raleigh (in 2019) to take the role of CTO of Global Platforms. In 2022 he joined IBM to work on domain-specific applications of generative AI. Adam holds an MS and BS in CS from UCLA and Stanford, respectively. When not at a keyboard, he enjoys spending time with his family.
