A Space for Thoughtful 
Event Preview | AI Con USA 2026
AI Con has always been where practitioners say what’s actually working and what isn’t. The 2026 Seattle edition arrives at a moment when that conversation is long overdue.
AI Con USA is built around the topics that matter in practice — real-world AI deployment, RAG, agentic systems, and AI strategy — not the polished keynote version of these things, but the messy, unresolved version that engineering and technology leaders are actually navigating inside their organizations every day.
The conference runs June 7–12 at the Hyatt Regency Seattle, covering everything from half- and full-day tutorials to an expo floor showcasing the latest in AI, machine learning, and LLM technologies. The Leadership Summit thread is particularly interesting to us — an honest conversation about what it actually takes to move AI from promising pilot to measurable business impact is one this industry has been avoiding for too long.
For us, the sessions on agentic AI, generative AI platforms, and enterprise AI deployment are where we’ll be paying closest attention. The gap between what organizations say they’re doing with AI and what’s actually running in production is still significant — and Seattle is where we expect to find out what’s genuinely closing it.
We’ll bring the real takeaways back here.
Stay tuned.
