NEXT AI SUMMIT 2025 Speakers
The Next AI Summit is unlike any other event—it’s an immersive experience into the many dimensions of artificial intelligence. We will uncover what is truly happening and how it will shape our future. Our speakers are chosen for their independence, impartiality and for their depth of knowledge.
They have been chosen to bring “the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth” about artificial intelligence.
