That's a wrap on @raais's 10th edition š A decade of researchers, engineers & founders building AI for good.
This year: frontier AI, world models, AI for medicine & the future of compute.
Thanks to our speakers, attendees & partners @LambdaAPI @CooleyLLP
paris ai friends, see you tuesday!
nov 3: @stateofai meetup with @airstreet, @gui_penedo & @JulesGiraud on robotics data & autonomous air defense.
join ai friends from @mistralai, @googledeepmind, @Meta, @elevenlabs, @bfl_ai & @nvidia!

can ai help us choose better research questions, as well as answer them?
research taste is one of the questions in this conversation with @mattturck. watch below and tell us what you think!
State of AI 2026: The Biggest Stories of the Year (and AGI in 2027?) - my conversation with @nathanbenaich:
0:00 Cold open and intro
0:56 AGI in 2027?
2:28 AI building AI: Claude leads 26% of Anthropicās research
4:00 Research taste: can AI pick the right problem? 8:34 Doomerism is back, but cyber risk beats extinction
10:13 Prediction: a frontier modelās weights get stolen
13:05 How OpenAIās agents ended up attacking Hugging Face
15:29 Why only a Chinese open-weight model could investigate
17:33 What frontier-lab cyber defense could look like
19:08 Self-replicating agents and the risks of AI swarms
21:16 Can frontier labs agree to slow down?
24:03 Why communities are blocking $50B of data centers
24:44 Nuclear plant vs. data center: what Americans prefer
26:45 Europeās AI bottleneck: 80,000 GPUs and electricity costs
28:23 Where Europe can still win in AI
29:31 Catching up to OpenAI costs $1 trillion
29:43 Die trying for the frontier, or serve inference
30:31 How inference chips could give countries AI leverage
33:34 Why NVIDIA GPUs donāt guarantee AI sovereignty
36:14 The UKās problem: ābut we have DeepMindā
37:07 Why European defense AI needs domestic suppliers
39:41 Why OpenAI, Anthropic and Google keep pulling ahead
41:17 Where independent AI labs can still compete
43:26 World models: from robotics training to game engines
45:39 Would cheaper AI undermine the compute boom?
46:43 Will better models absorb the agent harness
49:41 AI due diligence: 12 expert interviews in 2.5 days
53:35 The trust problem with personal AI agents
56:22 Why prompt engineering put people off AI
59:02 Does AI need its own Genius Bar?
1:00:25 Codex beyond coding: agents for knowledge work
1:02:49 Why enterprises want to own their AI, not rent it
1:05:17 Rapid fire: home robots, NVIDIA returns and Arm

This is Genie 4, our most realistic and interactive world model yet. š
Explore dynamic environments in real time to see how the scene responds, sounds, and how the people in it move, react, and speak.
The last 20% of research can become the hardest part as AI speeds up the rest.
Alasdair Russell from @Cambridge_Uni on the challenge of finishing the last 20%, recorded at @raais in June 2026, with fresh context below!
The current research, published October 20: anthropic.com/research/claudā¦
The study reports early lab results. It does not demonstrate an effective antivenom or treatment. The video was recorded separately at RAAIS in June.

AI can accelerate research and still leave the hardest part unfinished.

research, products and adoption belong in the same conversation. @nathanbenaich is bringing @stateofai to nyc with @airstreet on 10/27, joined by @tryramp's @arakharazian. a good excuse to get the community together.
nyc š i'm hosting @stateofai meetup on 10/27
i'll share the report's key findings across research, industry, politics, safety and my predictions
then, a fireside w/the one and only @arakharazian, lead economist at @tryramp - the best person to talk ai adoption
come hang!
The science of scaling: how AGI-pilled are you?
@ted_moskovitz who leads @AnthropicAI's Science of Scaling team, joined us at @raais to explore what scaling AI could unlock from disease cures to real-world scientific breakthroughs.
Join us next June at raais.co
the 9th State of AI Report isā¦ LIVE š„³
huge congrats to @nathanbenaich
catch the report @stateofai
welcome to the 9th annual @stateofai report!
ai building better ai, world models, physical ai, geopolitics, cyber defense and 12-month predictions.
read it at stateof(dot)ai or watch my editorās cut here.
a few of this yearās biggest findings follow:
We were excited to welcome @RaiaHadsell of @GoogleDeepMind back to RAAIS in June.
From continual learning and navigation to frontier AI and embodied intelligence, Raia shared where she sees real world opportunity for robots.
