From Nuclear Engineering to AI Education
Dr. Saab's path into AI began in one of the most demanding technical fields: nuclear engineering and scientific computing. His PhD work required applying advanced computational methods to highly complex, safety-critical systems β an environment where precision, rigor, and deep understanding are non-negotiable.
That same rigour carried him into aerospace and then into enterprise AI consulting at Capgemini, where he led Generative AI and Agentic AI projects for large organisations navigating the transition to AI-powered operations. Working at the frontier of what was practically possible with AI, he built systems that were actually deployed β not just demoed.
Alongside this engineering work, Dr. Saab began teaching AI β first to executive teams, then at IAE Aix-Marseille, one of France's leading graduate schools of management. Teaching made the gap visible: most people β from students to senior managers β had no real mental model of what AI can and can't do, how to use it critically, or what the real risks are.
SchoolAI is his answer to that gap.
