About

Who you would be booking

Alberto Artasanchez is a data scientist and solutions architect with more than 30 years of experience across technology and finance. He has spent his career at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the financial industry, building large-scale machine learning and data platforms, and is an AWS Ambassador with nine AWS certifications and the author of technical books including Artificial Intelligence with Python and AWS for Solutions Architects.

He also writes for a general audience. In The Long Game series he lays out practical, no-hype approaches to building wealth over time, covering Bitcoin, AI-powered investing, and real estate. In the Smoke and Mirrors series he investigates the gap between what we are promised and what actually gets delivered, from a 42 billion dollar broadband program that connected almost no one to a bullet train that ballooned into a 100 billion dollar question. In Elon Musk's Master Plan he maps the single strategy that connects Musk's many companies.
