Is your business ready for the AI-powered arms race of the century?

This wasn’t just another week in tech — it was the week. Microsoft revealed its plan to automate the enterprise. Google’s scrambling to catch up with AI-first everything. OpenAI just spent $6.5 billion to build devices that could replace your phone — and your keyboard. If your company still thinks of AI as "optional," you're already behind.

Here’s the real takeaway:
We're not watching a tech trend — we’re watching the restructuring of how work, business, and even the internet itself will function in the coming months (not years).

Recommendation:
If you lead a business and want to stay competitive, you need to understand what happened this week — because your competitors definitely will.

In this session, you'll discover:

  • Microsoft’s bold AI strategy: enterprise-wide agents that can replace whole departments
  • The new AI web protocol (NL Web) that may kill traditional websites
  • Google’s AI tab in Search, Gemini updates, and why Project Astra could make you feel like Iron Man
  • Claude Opus 4's jaw-dropping 7-hour autonomous coding run — and what that means for your dev team
  • The $6.5B bet OpenAI made with Jony Ive — and what it reveals about your hardware future
  • Klarna’s 40% workforce reduction powered by AI (with revenue still rising)
  • Why Satya Nadella is building AI to replace himself (no, seriously)
  • Smartglasses arms race: Meta, Apple, Google — who’s going to own your face?
  • The scary-cool future of wearable AI, brain chips, and what it might mean for your kids

Most business leaders know AI can generate stunning visuals.
But turning that potential into real, consistent, on-brand creative?
That’s where most teams get stuck.
In this live session, we’re pulling back the curtain. Ross Symons will walk us through the exact workflows he teaches marketing teams worldwide. You’ll learn how to pick the right image-generation tools for the job, how to maintain visual consistency, and even how to integrate your product photos into ad-ready AI-generated assets.
Ross has spent the past decade blending creativity with code — from viral origami animations to helping global brands reimagine content with AI. He’s not just using the tools — he’s pushing them to their limits and building systems others now rely on. And now, he’s here to show you how it’s actually done.
If you're a business leader, marketer, or content creator looking for real, tactical value from AI — you’ll want to be in the room for this.

AI-generated visuals have become table stakes. But what if you're still playing checkers while others are playing 4D chess?
In this session, we’re breaking open the real world of visual AI — the one most people don’t even know exists.
You’ll see the 3 major paths to creating powerful visuals with AI:
- the conversational path (think: ChatGPT),
- the classic tools (Midjourney, etc.),
- the open-source frontier, where precision, layering, and total control change the game.
Guiding us through this visual odyssey is Luka Tišler — a visual AI educator, workshop leader, and founder of an academy teaching professionals how to wield tools like ComfyUI, ControlNet, and more. Luka doesn’t just play with prompts — he builds pipelines. If you want consistency, control, and pro-level results, he’s your guy.
You’ll walk away understanding the trade-offs between tools, how to make the right choice for your business needs, and why there’s a whole new level of image generation out there waiting for you.
