Announcing the Visual Intelligence Summit
Published Aug 19, 2026 • 1 min read

On October 22, we're hosting the Visual Intelligence Summit, a one-day gathering in San Francisco for the people building AI that sees and acts in the physical world. The model builders, chip makers, robotics founders, and operators running vision AI in production, all in the same place. 

Where AI meets the physical world

We believe bringing AI into the physical world is the most essential work in AI, and the best way to advance humanity in our lifetimes. Few people are building for AI beyond the screen.

The Summit is for the people who see a world where AI unlocks an abundant future and want to be at the frontier of bringing AI into the physical world. 

What to expect

Attendees can join two types of sessions.

In the showcase sessions, you’ll hear from the people using AI in the real world and see how their deployments work. These are systems running and solving problems in the world right now, explained by the people who built them and the businesses that rely on them. 

During build sessions you’ll make something. Join a smaller group, open your laptop, chat with people tackling similar challenges, and walk out with a working app. 

Come learn from people at the forefront of bringing AI to the physical world.

Join us

This is the one day in 2026 when the people creating this category will be in the same place exchanging ideas, information, and a vision for the future.

We would love for you to be one of them. Join us
