View in browser Hi Andy,    Ten years ago, World Summit AI brought together builders and thinkers who were already out in front of the AI curve.   Today, they’re running billion‑dollar labs, defining enterprise AI strategy and shaping how the world governs frontier systems. Seeing them early helped our community place better bets on teams, tech and trends. Join the AI summit running since 2017 >> Here’s where some of your favourite World Summit AI 2017 speakers are now. Big tech & frontier labs Yann LeCun From leading AI at Facebook to founding AMI Labs with a billion‑dollar war chest, he’s now betting big on “world‑model” AI as an alternative to LLM‑only thinking. Stuart Russell The original voice on human‑compatible AI, now one of the key people governments turn to when they’re deciding how to manage frontier‑level systems. Ruslan Salakhutdinov The Apple + CMU heavyweight who helped industrialise deep learning and still sets the pace in large‑scale representation learning.   Governance & power Meredith Whittaker From AI Now to President of Signal, she’s now one of the loudest, clearest voices on AI power, surveillance and encrypted communications. Kay Firth‑Butterfield The WEF pioneer who put AI on the Davos agenda and helped push responsible AI and global frameworks into the boardroom vocabulary. Enterprise & scaling Max Welling The bridge between Qualcomm and UvA in 2017, now a cornerstone of the European AI ecosystem, connecting theory (Bayesian, geometric) to hardware and deployment. Tony Jebara The recommender‑systems brain behind Netflix who later led ML at Spotify, turning AI into the core of how the world discovers content Nicola Morini‑Bianzino From leading AI at Accenture to shaping tech strategy for global enterprises, he’s the person Fortune 500s call when they want AI beyond the pilot stage. A decade of WSAI has shown us one thing: the people you meet here don’t just talk about the future of AI – they go out and build it.   At our 10‑year anniversary edition in Amsterdam, you’ll meet the next cohort before everyone else is quoting them in strategy docs, regulation and funding memos.
