Organizing AI Conf 2026 was intense, messy, exhausting, and deeply rewarding.
There were moments where things didn’t go as planned. Moments where we weren’t sure something would come together in time. And moments where the community surprised us in the best possible way by stepping up without hesitation.
What made it all worth it was seeing people connect. Watching conversations continue long after talks ended. Hearing from attendees who felt the conference gave them something they hadn’t quite found elsewhere. And seeing people bond on hike day, not just as professionals, but as friends.
One thing is clear to us now: we want to keep building spaces like this. So yes, we do plan on doing an AI Conf again next year.
