The greatest force for global prosperity in our lifetime is unfolding before us through the emergence of thinking machines that see, move, build, and learn. AI is now set to power robotics, collapsing labor costs, and redefine what’s possible in food production, clean energy, healthcare, education, housing, and manufacturing. We are on the cusp of global abundance. But abundance doesn’t arrive by magic, it rides on rails: compute infrastructure, open access, clean energy, and trust. And right now, those rails are buckling under pressure. We don’t have enough power, cooling and GPUs in the right places. The best models are locked behind closed gates. And regulation is trying to hit the brakes, just as the rocket is lifting off. In this keynote, Yuri Frayman, CEO of CAST AI, lays out a contrarian thesis: AI won’t take our jobs, it will make human flourishing possible at a scale never seen before. But only if we get out of our own way. He’ll share hard lessons from the infrastructure front lines and unveil a decentralized vision for scaling intelligence: Project OMNI, a global GPU marketplace that unlocks inference, fine-tuning and training capacity for teams of all sizes, all over the world. If we want AI to lift billions out of poverty, we have to build the rails it will run on. The next industrial revolution is physical.
