In 2026, AI isn’t a “tech topic” anymore. It’s becoming the operating system underneath politics, business, science and daily life. And the uncomfortable truth is: our institutions are moving slower than the technology. That’s the spirit in which we’re launching TEDAI 2026. Oct 28–30, 2026 • Vienna (Hofburg) Three days designed for people who don’t want the hype or the doom, but the work: - Opening Gala: to gather the community - Discovery Day: workshops, debates, hands-on sessions, and the kind of dinners where the real conversations happen - Talks Day: 20+ carefully curated TED Talks, built around the questions that actually matter. If you’re building, funding, adopting, governing, or researching AI, or if you’re simply trying to stay honest about what it’s doing to society, I’d love to have you with us. Bring your skepticism. Bring your optimism. Bring your questions. We’ll do the thinking and the hard conversations together. Link in comments 👇 #TEDAI #AI #Vienna

Looking forward to
It's happening! 🥳
Important perspective. In hospitality, AI is already becoming part of the invisible operating system behind daily decisions.The real challenge isn’t technology speed — it’s how fast leadership, culture, and governance can create clarity around it. That’s where responsibility begins. Conversations like TEDAI move us beyond hype and fear toward practical, human-centered progress. Greetings from the Baltic SeaFrank Prasmo
I also think about AI as an operating system, that's how my AI Design OS project was born! ♥️ aidesign-os.com
It’s certainly a personal operating system!
Already have my ticket, I can't wait !!
