SUMMARY:State of AI in Texas 2026
DESCRIPTION:Texas sets its AI agenda on November 17. Join agency leaders\, founders\, and investors for one afternoon at Austin PBS.\n\n\nTwo weeks after the midterms. Months before the 2027 legislative session. This is where Texas sets its AI agenda. \nAI is already reshaping Texas. Our highways. Our hospitals. Sovereignty over our power grid. Our jobs. On November 17\, the leaders making those decisions gather at the Austin PBS Studio for an afternoon of candid conversation about what is working\, what still needs solving\, and what Texas needs next. You’ll leave with a clearer picture of how AI is changing your industry and a network of people across the state working on the same questions. \nIf you’re building\, buying\, regulating\, or hiring for AI in Texas\, you need to be in this room. \nAgenda\nOne afternoon. Two sessions. Every sector that matters. \n1:00 Check-in & VIP Seating \n1:30 Keynote by Anh Selissen \n2:00 Session One: AI in Action \n\nWhy are top global tech firms\, AI infrastructure investments\, and energy pioneers flocking to Texas over traditional coastal tech hubs?\nHow can municipal and regional leaders across Austin\, Dallas\, and Houston collaborate to ensure local communities benefit from the economic windfall?\nWhere is AI delivering immediate\, measurable ROI in Texas health systems today versus where is it still pure marketing hype?\n\n3:40 Recharge and Networking \n4:00 Session Two: The Frontier of Agentic AI \n\nWhat happens when AI moves from generating static text to taking autonomous multi-step actions inside core business software?\nWhat makes Texas uniquely positioned to lead the next decade of deep tech research\, defense innovation\, and commercialization?\nWhen quantum computing and advanced LLMs converge\, what Texas industries will experience immediate disruption first?\nAre Texas schools and universities preparing students for jobs that won’t exist in 5 years\, or equipping them to lead the AI transition?\n\n6:00 Final Word & Networking Reception \n \nThank you to our event sponsors.
