2. Learn What's Actually Working — From the People Who Built It

Skip the trend reports. Get the unfiltered version, straight from the source.
The headline theme: The Rise of OpenClaw — the shift from "AI assists you" to "AI executes for you," and the defining transition of 2026.
Deep-dive tracks include:

• Vibe Coding — execution-grade in Coding, Finance, Security, Infra, Legal, and Healthcare
• Agent Orchestration — multi-agent coordination and the emerging middleware stack
• Autonomous Workflows — full end-to-end systems already running in production
• AI-Native Enterprises — companies rebuilt from the ground up around agents
• Multimodal Models at Scale — what's actually deployed, and what's still hype

No vaporware. No demo-stage theater. Only systems already generating value.

6. At One of the World's Most Iconic Venues

The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco — the most elegant landmark in the global epicenter of AI.
When frontier technology meets century-old architecture, the message is clear:
> The next era of intelligence isn't just a technical shift. It's a civilizational one.
***
Three Years, Three Questions
> 2024: "What can AI do?" 2025: "What is AI already replacing?" 2026: "What's left for humans?"
The questions are getting sharper. The stakes have never been higher.
