QCon AI Boston 2026 is close to selling out. Six sessions where speakers engage directly with the gap between AI working in a demo and AI working in production. By Artenisa Chatziou
The rapid development and widespread adoption of AI models are pushing the industry to address the complexities of moving from experimental demos to robust, production-ready systems.
This indicates a maturing phase in AI, where the focus shifts from pure innovation to practical implementation, reliability, and security, which are critical for enterprise adoption and scaling.
The industry's focus is visibly moving towards solving engineering challenges for production AI, rather than just developing novel AI architectures, implying a more pragmatic approach to AI deployment.
