INTELLIGENCE
EXPLOSION

HOW AI BREAKS OUT OF THE SCREEN AND OPENS THE PATH TO SUPERINTELLIGENCE

Artificial intelligence already feels omnipresent — but what we experience today is just the beginning. In this keynote, Pieter Van Leugenhagen takes business leaders on a clear, visual and sometimes confrontational journey into the next phase of technology.

We live in a moment where AI is spreading faster than any technology before it. Yet Large Language Models are beginning to show their limits. The real breakthrough will not come from systems that can only talk and generate, but from AI that can see, hear, feel and act in the physical world. Hardware, smart wearables and large world models are the missing link — the bridge between digital intelligence and physical reality.
