No badge, no problem: from whurley’s keynotes to deep‑dive engineer sessions, much of All Things AI’s lineup is streaming live for anyone who wants in.

The workshop day for this year’s All Things AI in Durham, North Carolina is one for the history books, since it happened yesterday. The traditional conference day for the event — now in its sophomore year — is today, but unless you have tickets already you’re SOL, since it’s sold out.
That’s a cryin’ shame, given that today’s morning keynotes lineup features not one, but two keynotes by whurley, who these days is founder and CEO of Strangeworks, a quantum computing-focused startup that’s located inside Austin city limits.
Also on tap for morning keynotes: Yassah Reed, a technical support engineer at San Francisco-based Intercom, which produces an AI‑driven customer service and messaging platform; Luis Lastras, director of language and multimodal technologies at IBM; and Darko Mesaros, principal developer advocate at AWS.
All of these are world class speakers, whose involvement in the tech world goes back to the days when artificial intelligence was one of those futuristic terms that described a thing that sounded darn near impossible.
I know. I know. Bummer. You tried to buy tickets and All Things AI’s website said they were all sold out, and now you’re cryin’, “Too bad. I snoozed and losed.”
