About this session

Day 1 showed what's technically possible. Day 2 is about who's actually building it, and what it takes to keep going once the pressure is real. The underlying theme: ambition doesn't have a finish line. Not a championship, not an capstone project, not a title. Everyone on the stage is still building.

Hear from Formula 1 Champion Jenson Button. Before the trophies came nine seasons in a car that couldn't win — and then, almost overnight, six wins to open the Brawn GP season and one of the greatest drives in F1 history in Montreal. It's a story about staying ambitious through the years when the results don't match the belief.

Conviction founder Sarah Guo sits down with Fei-Fei Li for a conversation about what comes after you've already changed the field once. Fei-Fei has spent the past few years building World Labs around a bold, contrarian idea: that the next frontier in AI isn't language, it's spatial intelligence. This is a conversation about having the conviction to back an idea before the world sees it, and the confidence to keep choosing your next act over resting on your last one.

Closing things out, CoreWeave CEO Mike Intrator gets in the hot seat with Sean Evans. As the questions get spicier, so do the answers, covering the toughest calls, the near-misses, and the one decision today that he's betting the rest of the industry will come around to.
