As AI moves from experimentation to execution, 2026 marks a shift from models and demos to systems, decisions, and real operational impact. The most important changes are no longer about which model is best—but about how AI is integrated into workflows, decision-making, and the real world.
In this talk, we’ll explore the key AI trends shaping 2026, including the rise of agentic systems, selective reasoning models, context and decision engineering, and the growing importance of evaluation and cost-aware design. We’ll look at how AI is evolving from copilots to autonomous collaborators—and where human judgment remains essential. Designed for both technical practitioners and business leaders, this session connects emerging AI capabilities to practical questions:
Which decisions should AI handle continuously
Where does reasoning add value—and where does it add cost?
How do organizations move from pilots to durable AI systems?
Attendees will leave with a clearer mental model for what’s changing in AI, what actually matters in 2026, and how to position their teams, products, and careers for the next phase of AI adoption.
