AGI Summit 2026 | Where GenAI Converges

Date: July 18–19, 2026
Location: Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco

About the Event Welcome to the AGI Summit 2026. This two-day conference brings together researchers, engineers, and industry professionals to discuss the practical advancement of generative AI and the transition toward artificial general intelligence. Our discussions this year will center on the shift from AI as an assistive tool to autonomous, execution-driven systems.

Key Themes & Deep-Dive Tracks

  • The Rise of OpenClaw: The transition to execution-capable AI and what it means for the industry.
  • Agent Orchestration: Multi-agent coordination and the emerging middleware stack.
  • Autonomous Workflows: Evaluating end-to-end systems currently running in production.
  • Multimodal Models at Scale: Analyzing deployed systems versus theoretical capabilities.
  • Global AI Cinema Panel: A special session by Stanford researchers exploring the evolving role of human-AI interaction and what remains fundamentally human in the age of AI.

Featured Speaker Lineup
We are honored to host researchers and developers from leading frontier labs and academic institutions, including:

Frontier AI Labs

  • Wendy Lu & Aengus Lynch (Anthropic): Discussing Claude for Enterprise and the alignment research behind the Claude 4 system card.
  • Rohan Varma (OpenAI): Product Lead of Codex, joined by a panel of OpenAI engineers scaling AI infrastructure and inference.

Academic Pioneers

  • Christopher Manning (Stanford): Director of SAIL, co-founder of Stanford HAI, and NLP researcher (GloVe).
  • Sebastian Thrun (Stanford): Founder of Udacity & Google X, pioneer in autonomous vehicles.
  • Surya Ganguli (Stanford): Co-inventor of diffusion models.
  • James Zou (Stanford): Researcher in medical AI and FDA-cleared cardiac AI systems.
  • Christopher Potts (Stanford): Chair of Linguistics.
  • Bin Yu (UC Berkeley): Member of the National Academy of Sciences.
  • Ken Goldberg (UC Berkeley): Pioneer in robotic grasping.
  • Joseph Gonzalez (UC Berkeley): Researcher behind vLLM & Chatbot Arena.

Industry & Investment Leaders
