This talk explores the growing divide between open and closed AI, from the promise of openness, transparency and wider access, to the case for proprietary models, greater control and responsible deployment.
What does “open” really mean when it comes to AI? Does openness drive innovation and competition, or introduce new risks? And as the technology evolves, will the future of AI be truly open or closed, or something in between?

What happens if open source wins?

AI has learned to describe the world in words. The next frontier is teaching AI to understand the world as it really is: made of objects, movement, space, sound, and cause and effect. Visual intelligence gives machines a richer understanding of that reality. In this keynote, Andi Blattmann explores how Black Forest Labs is building the foundation of this next layer of intelligence, and how this foundation enables the next generation of physical AI.
