Everyone says attention is the scarcest resource. Few measure what it costs. Starting tomorrow, 8,000 people make Paris their priority. Not a tab in the background - flights booked, calendars cleared, OOO on. When someone running AI at a Fortune 500 blocks two full days, they’re betting the room beats the screen. My job is to win that bet. 10th and 11th time - @MACHINASUMMIT tomorrow, @RaiseSummit Wednesday. The pressure never shrinks. Good.

Agentic AI is exposing the limits of today's AI architectures. As AI agents become more autonomous, reason for longer, and execute increasingly complex workflows, they're placing demands on models that the Transformer architecture was never designed to handle indefinitely. The Transformer changed everything. But no architecture stays at the frontier forever, and the search for what comes next is already underway. Across the industry, researchers and builders are exploring the post-Transformer landscape: new architectures, new approaches to inference, and new ways to make intelligence faster, cheaper, and more capable at scale. The teams solving these challenges won't just improve today's models; they'll shape the next generation of AI. This July 8, five builders working at that frontier take the Grace Hopper Stage to map where the next breakthrough comes from: Yinon Costica (@Wiz_io) | @GilFeig (@merge_api) | @Rich15949740 (@BlackboxAI) | @saahil9jain (@youdotcom) | @dxhuang (@PingCAP) Moderated by @JordanNanos (@SemiAnalysis_) If the Transformer got us here, what takes us to the next frontier? RAISE Week continues tomorrow with @MACHINASummit, Europe’s leading summit for humanoid and robotics πŸ€– See you all at @joinstationf πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

RAISE Week has kicked off πŸš€ This weekend, builders from 60 different countries came together to build everything from a hands-free AI copilot that turns IKEA manuals into interactive 3D step-by-step guides to autonomous agents that generate photorealistic video-to-action robot training datasets straight from text. Next up, @MACHINASummit, Europe's leading summit for humanoid and robotics at @joinstationf. 7 July πŸ€– Meet the sponsors powering RAISE 2026. Headlining it all: @IREN_LTD and @cognition. The diamond tier: @snyksec, @Nscale, @togethercompute, @cursor_ai, @lovable, and @Replit The infrastructure powering the frontier: @CoreWeave, @nebiusai, @Vultr, @weka, @SambaNovaAI, @baseten, @CrusoeAI, @DDNintelligence, @Supermicro, @AMD, Polarise, @FireworksAI_HQ, @Cerebras @Rebellions_inc and more. The Builder's Toolkit: @OpenAI, emma, @elevenlabs, @FactoryAI, Fundamental, @meetgamma, @traversal_ai oxylabs, @ExaAILabs, Alice, @Google, @blackboxai and the rest of the AI native & Dev Tools Stack. The enterprise financial backbone: @BankofAmerica, @Stripe, @rubrikInc, @elastic, @Vintage_Inv, and more. 9,000 attendees. 2,000 companies. 350 speakers. 80% C-level and founders. The room is set. The names are locked. See you all in Paris this July 4-10 πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

What better way to start the @RaiseSummit week than with a 2-day hackathon at Neon Noir? πŸ’» πŸ–€ #Hackaton #AI #summit

Congrats to the winners! In particular: Praetor, we spend some really good time yesterday evening and I believed in them!! Creatifive and Team Number One : as a judge I selected both of them!
THE BATTLE OF THE BOULEVARD IS OVER. THE BUILDERS HAVE SPOKEN. 48 hours. 6,000 builders. 60 countries. Two buildings turned into the most concentrated grid of technical talent Paris has seen all year, and it came down to the stage today. To every team who demoed something that didn't exist 48 hours ago: THAT is what RAISE Hackathon is for. Placed or not - you built, you shipped, you showed up. Respect. Track by track: Cursor 1st - CREATIFIVE: a hands-free AI copilot that turns IKEA manuals (starting with the BILLY bookcase) into interactive 3D step-by-step guides, with voice Q&A, mistake warnings, and photo-based progress checks. 2nd - TEAM NUMBER ONE: a voice-first AI coach that lets teams rehearse high-stakes conversations - pitches, reviews, tough interviews - against lifelike characters with instant feedback. 3rd - NETF: an AI agent that lets anyone connect, control and debug any robot via text or voice just by providing its URDF, turning every session into training data for the whole fleet. Vultr 1st - ClinTrial: a Vultr-powered enterprise agent that runs clinical trial payment operations end to end. 2nd - json ("Arc"): a cloud-based multi-agent system built to run telecom network operations. 3rd - FlashDeal ("Sell Baby Sell"): turns a property address into an investor-ready deal in about 60 seconds. 4th - MILA: rebuilds an IVF patient's hormone trajectory from scattered medical records. Google DeepMind 1st - LOW CORTISOL - FLOW TWIN: a stateful hospital operations twin modelling any hospital's day-to-day running in real time. 2nd - ATHENA: when calls flood a call center, Athena transcribes and translates them live while deploying a swarm of agents to structure the data. 3rd - MANTRA: an autonomous agent using Gemini Computer Use to playtest hypercasual game prototypes. Crusoe 1st - Roboss: autonomous agents that generate photorealistic video-to-action robot training datasets straight from text. 2nd - Praetor: a physics-grounded digital twin built for factory predictive maintenance. 3rd - Call of Dauty: an AI-powered decision support platform to improve Ebola diagnostic test kit resupply during an outbreak in the DRC. SPECIAL AWARD - BEST USE OF NEMOTRON, by NVIDIA: ROBINSUN. To our venues Neon Noir. and La Maison, and Cerebral Valley for running point: thank you for the boulevards. To every partner behind the prizes - @cursor_ai , @Vultr , @GoogleDeepMind @CrusoeAI , @nvidia , plus @Microsoft, @Cloudflare, @nebiusai , @OpenRouter and @SUSE - RAISE Hackathon does not happen without you. What an incredible way to kick off RAISE Week. Honoured by every applicant, the passion in the room, the intelligence packed into two buildings - the one place where the top 1% of development talent gathered to build something special. To the finalists, the winners, and the 6,000 who showed up and built anyway - this is only the beginning. GO RAISE Hackathon. GO RAISE Week.

Judging has moved through the room today, and the judges have a genuinely hard job on their hands. Too many strong ideas, too many builds that actually work, not nearly enough spots to reward them all. The kind of problem you want a hackathon to create. Spare a thought for the judges right now. #RAISEHackathon #RAISEWeek2026

2nd day of the @RaiseSummit hackathon in Paris! I’m at the second venue as a judge, people have been coding all night!!! It’s more cozy than the 1st venue, or people are just tired after a long night…

The first round judging is in full swing @RaiseSummit hackathon. Each team is pitching their submissions to the panel in this small room. Fingers crossed and the top 5 make the finals! @SUSE

Final minutes. Last commits going in, last demos getting one more test run, last sanity checks before the deadline hits. This is the moment every hackathon comes down to, not the idea, not the pitch, just: does it actually work, right now, under the clock. Submissions close in minutes. Lock it in. πŸ”’ #RAISEHackathon #RAISEWeek2026

Day 2 and push to the finish line is in progress here at @RaiseSummit AI hackathon! Found teams sleeping in chairs after going strong all night! Not only hot weather in Paris, but really hot ideas cooking at hackathon. Can’t wait to judge final results later today. @SUSE

Day 2 of RAISE Hackathon. Some of you are asleep in your chairs. Some of you never left the keyboard. Both are completely valid hackathon strategies. Final hours of hacking before the submission deadline - then first round judging begins today. Whatever's left in the tank, this is where it counts. Let's finish strong. πŸ’ͺ #RAISEHackathon #RAISEWeek2026
