Artificial intelligence is fundamentally rewriting the rules of how we learn, teach, and train. From AI-powered tutors in elementary schools to automated grading in universities and predictive upskilling in the corporate world, AI is augmenting learning and accelerating training and  expertise development. The question is no longer if AI belongs in education and development, but how we manage its massive, disruptive influence and maximize its benefits while addressing its limitations.

Join the Austin Forum for a dynamic, multi-perspective conversation featuring a panel of leading academic and industry experts who will explore these topics and take audience questions. We will explore the sweeping transformation of the learning landscape across the entire lifecycle—spanning K-12 classrooms, higher education institutions, professional development programs, and lifelong learning opportunities. This session will go beyond the standard talking points to look at the empirical data, real-world case studies, and systemic challenges of this new frontier.

We will revisit your business strategy and make your business more profitable and sustainable.

AI tools have gotten remarkably good at writing code. What used to take hours of boilerplate and syntax lookup can now happen in seconds. That changes the game — but it also changes what you need to be good at.

This will be a hands-on introduction to building software with AI assistants. Using Claude Code and other modern tools, we'll write real features, fix real bugs, and see firsthand how AI accelerates development — and where it quietly introduces problems if you're not paying attention. You'll learn how to work with AI coding tools effectively, how to evaluate what they generate instead of blindly trusting it, and why practices like testing, code review, and version control become your most important safety net when AI is writing the code.

Whether you write code daily or are exploring development for the first time, you'll leave with practical skills and a clear-eyed view of what AI can and can't do for you.

Every time we search for information on the web, send email, stream a video, buy an airline ticket, query a generative AI model, or use an enterprise cloud application, we rely on a massive, invisible engine: the modern data center. As the foundational backbone of our digital economy, these facilities power the applications driving business growth, scientific breakthroughs, personal entertainment and education, and modern societal advancement. Yet, as our collective thirst for computing scale accelerates, so does the physical footprint and resources utilization required to sustain it.

Join Austin Forum for an open conversation about the physical foundation of our digital future. This event is designed for a pro-technology crowd that isn't afraid to look at the math, tackle the bottlenecks, and discuss what it really takes to power the next era of human ingenuity responsibly.
