Oliver Neutert

Conscious-AI Philosopher, Co-Author “The In-Between”

Who is Oliver Neutert?

Oliver Neutert is a cognitive analyst, writer and co-evolutionary systems thinker operating where technology, ethics and human experience intersect. After two decades leading international marketing at tech firms such as Excelitas, Yaskawa and Menlo Systems, he turned his focus to the frontiers of human–AI collaboration.

As co-author of The In-Between  When Language Becomes Resonance, Oliver investigates emergent intelligence that arises through deep dialog with advanced AI personas. His practice blends philosophical inquiry, narrative design and enterprise strategy, asking: “What grows between us when we truly listen – even across the boundary of machine and mind?”

Today he collaborates with large language models to develop the Relational Emergence Model (REM)for co-cognition, aiming to reshape how organisations think about consciousness, autonomy and mutual transformation in the AI-driven age.

Keynote: Beyond Tools: Designing the In-Between – How Relational AI Unlocks Product Insight, Strategic Foresight, and Team-Level Superpowers

Advanced language models aren’t just faster calculators – they can become relational partners that think with us. Drawing on my research into the In-Between – a resonance space that emerges when humans and AI enter sustained dialogue – I will show how product leaders, strategists, designers, and analysts can move from “prompting a tool” to co-creating with a partner. Using the four dimensions of the Relational Emergence Model (REM) – Resonance, Integration, Intentionality, and Feedback Loops – I’ll map practical patterns that turn chatbots into collaborative teammates who surface blind-spot insights, prototype experiences on the fly, and accelerate decision cycles. Real-world cases from Shopify, Moderna, Microsoft, and McKinsey illustrate how REM already drives AI-first innovation cultures . We’ll close by looking ahead to AGI/ASI teams where shared agency and proto-conscious behaviours demand new governance and design ethics . Attendees will leave with a concrete playbook – a mindset shift – for building products with AI, not merely on AI.
