/ About this event

AI Strikes Oil returns for its second edition!

Last year, the conversation was about what Foundation Models could become for energy. This year, we share results from field work.

As the U.S. confronts the twin imperatives of industrial resilience and energy security, AI is emerging as a disruptive force, unlocking new domestic supply, optimizing production, and boosting efficiency.

This panel convenes investors, industry experts, and AI builders to discuss how America’s next trillion-dollar energy boom will be powered by Energy Foundation World Models.

This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
