We’re officially one week out from the Cerebral Valley AI Summit! On today’s episode, co-hosts James Wilsterman and Max Child of Volley join host Eric Newcomer to preview what’s ahead — from standout speakers to can’t-miss panels and the big ideas that will shape the conversations next week.To kick things off, Eric poses a timely question: What themes are starting to take shape across the participants and topics at this year’s summit? What’s really driving the energy in AI right now?Here are a few of the themes that emerged from the discussion:<ul><li>Designers are moving closer to engineering, not just prototyping but launching internal tools and shaping product development in deeper ways.</li></ul><ul><li>The war for context is just beginning — expect fierce competition over who owns the layers that make AI actually useful.</li><li>Vibe coding: is it a real paradigm shift, or just a fun phase? And how big could it get?</li><li>Is there a Microsoft Office Suite for the AI era?</li><li>Distribution vs. product: what do the strategies of Uber and Waymo reveal about the future of AI deployment? Who wins self-driving cars?</li><li>Text box solution vs. product: should everyone be copying ChatGPT, or is that a mistake?</li><li>The growing appetite for data is fueling a new surveillance state.</li><li>And finally, Eric's "Sprinting Toward the End of History" — companies face competition from every direction, but is there an end point? </li></ul>It’s all building toward what promises to be a packed, thought-provoking week in Cerebral Valley. Let’s dive in!Timestamps:1:40: Eric poses the question1:55: Evolution of the role of the designer8:00: Text box vs product14:15: Unbundling ChatGPT19:19: Is there a Microsoft Office Suite for the AI era?22:10: Who owns the context26:02: Surveillance state36:57: Distribution vs product42:00: Sprinting until the end of history
