Day 1 of three days on the biggest stage in tech, live from Moscone West in San Francisco. Today: what it takes to build the seemingly impossible, whether AI can keep scaling, and a future where technology interacts directly with the human body.
TODAY ON THE DISRUPT STAGE
RJ Scaringe, CEO of Rivian, talking about his ambitions to turn Rivia into a company that can design, manufacture, and scale complex physical products beyond cars.
Andrew Feldman, CEO of Cerebras, on whether AI can keep scaling as models demand more compute, energy, and capital, and what could break things.
Max Hodak, founder of Science Corporation, is exploring the world beyond screens to create technology that connects directly with the human body.
Startup Battlefield 200 founders will also be competing live all week across space and physical AI, energy and manufacturing, health tech and life sciences, and enterprise and security — with competitions kicking off today.
