Eric Newcomer's invite-only AI summit, back for its 8th edition in San Francisco. Dario Amodei (Anthropic), Ali Ghodsi (Databricks) and Nikesh Arora (Palo Alto Networks) are on the published list; the room skews roughly half AI founders, a third investors, and the rest media and researchers. The format is deliberately conversation-heavy (breakouts, 1:1 intros) rather than panel-watching. The point is who you talk to, not who's on stage. Founder tickets are $199 if you get in, standard $1,299, and application is the only way in.
