Hi, it's Tech editor Alexei Oreskovic filling in for David today.
It's a sign of the times—in the last few weeks, my schedule has been filled with AI-focused conferences, dinners, and events. TED had an AI-focused conference here in San Francisco last week, featuring speakers such as DeepMind cofounder Shane Legg, OpenAI cofounder Ilya Sutskever, and LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman. A week earlier, Seattle-based VC firm Madrona hosted its second annual Intelligent Applications Summit.
