About Henry Ajder
Henry Ajder is a pioneering authority on the generative AI landscape, widely recognised as the world's first GenAI Cartographer. He holds a prestigious visiting research position focused on AI ethics at the University of Cambridge’s Jesus College and serves as a Luminary Advisor for EY.

A former research lead at MIT and Sensity AI, Henry has authored influential reports such as the State of Deepfakes, which has shaped international law and corporate strategy.
