From September 24–26, 2025, the imperial Hofburg Palace in Vienna transforms into a global stage for one of the most anticipated events in the world of artificial intelligence: TEDAI Vienna.
There are tech summits—and then there’s TEDAI Vienna. What drew me in wasn’t just the promise of groundbreaking ideas, but the invitation to a profoundly human conversation about the future we’re actively shaping. And that’s something I care deeply about.
TEDAI isn’t your typical AI conference. It doesn’t just showcase the latest algorithms or pitch the next big startup. Instead, it dares to ask the deeper questions: What kind of world are we building with artificial intelligence? Who gets to shape it? And how do we make sure it serves us all?
What I love most is the multidimensional approach. Over three days, TEDAI blends science, ethics, creativity, and policy into one immersive experience. It’s not just for developers or researchers—it’s for anyone whose life is touched by technology. That means all of us.
The talks are refreshingly bold. Topics like algorithmic bias, the moral dilemmas of autonomous systems, and inclusive AI governance aren’t just buzzwords—they’re urgent, real-world challenges. And TEDAI doesn’t shy away from them. It brings together thinkers from across disciplines to wrestle with complexity and imagine better solutions.
TEDAI celebrates the creative side of AI. Artists, musicians, and designers join the conversation, exploring how generative technologies stretch the boundaries of human expression. As someone who believes in the power of creativity, this part feels especially inspiring. It’s not just about machines—it’s about imagination, authorship, and the evolving dance between human and artificial intelligence.
And then there’s the venue: Hofburg Palace. Walking through its historic halls while discussing the future of AI is surreal in the best way. It’s a place where tradition meets transformation, where centuries of legacy provide the perfect backdrop for forward-thinking ideas. It reminds me that progress doesn’t erase the past—it builds on it.
For me, TEDAI Vienna feels like the kind of future I want to help shape—one that’s thoughtful, inclusive, and deeply human.
