Who Will Own The Intelligence Layer?

Will AI consolidate around a handful of frontier labs - or will intelligence become an open, competitive commodity?

Join us for an evening of networking, drinks, and a fireside conversation with Vincent Weisser, CEO & Co-Founder of Prime Intellect, and Jake Randall, SVP, GTM at OpenRouter, about the future of the intelligence layer.

Together, they’ll explore two sides of a rapidly changing AI ecosystem:

Building intelligence - open models, reinforcement learning, distributed training, compute, and why intelligence doesn’t have to be controlled by a handful of labs.

Consuming intelligence - model choice, routing, economics, what developers actually use, and what happens when hundreds of models compete for every request.

We’ll dig into the big questions shaping what comes next: Who controls intelligence? What happens as models become increasingly interchangeable? And where does value accrue when developers can dynamically choose the best model for every task?

We’re gathering at an exclusive, design-forward venue near the Embarcadero, with a private open-air terrace for drinks and mingling, delicious bites, and an intimate setting built for great conversations.

Expect a thoughtful discussion, a great crowd, and plenty of time to connect with founders, researchers, engineers, and technical leaders building the next generation of AI products.
