- In Humanx in Las Vegas Tech LEDERS, talk about the effect of artificial intelligence on business.
- Speakers such as Kamala Harris emphasized the cooperation between the technology industry and the government.
- The enthusiasm of artificial intelligence has risen, but many of the attendees were focusing on practical ways to pay the company’s revenues.
I attended this week Humanx, where thousands of the founders of startups, investors and executives in the technology industry in Las Vegas met to discuss the suggestion of the value of artificial intelligence to their lower lines – and the future.
A conference was opened for nearly four days, with statements by former Vice President Kamala Harris. Harris, who held the position of “Amnesty International” during the Biden administration, was one of a handful of legislators in this event who called for stronger cooperation between the technology industry and the federal government.
In the following days, the attendees sat on paintings with veteran investors such as Vinod Khosla and Tim Driber along with the rising stars of artificial intelligence mutation such as embracing Thomas Wolf and Arthur Mench in Mistal. There was time to bend between the compartments on the conference floor, where technology giants and startups alike were ready for representatives to attract clients.
Artificial intelligence conferences can feel dancing. People speak with excitement about the transformational power of this technology, but it is also clear that they are offering where the real value lies.
Here are the best fast food:
1. Patience is a virtue when it comes to the return on investment
Conference speakers had some advice on achieving long -term gains with artificial intelligence.
Arvind Jain CEO of Glean has warned companies against creating an “Amnesty International Team” to create a road map to integrate technology. “Make small bets. Don’t try to focus immediately on the return on investment,” he said. “Focus on education first, for example, make the workforce trained with artificial intelligence.”
In the sales scene, Sarah Qouh said that companies have already achieved the gains of “high fructose corn syrup”, as they were revealed in their ability to send group emails or random mail customers with calls.
“This has actually led a lot of traction,” she said. However, “real customers have actually rid this quickly because he does not serve a real need. No one wants random mail – which is what it is.”
However, it makes people start “buying products” and expects to continue. “This is what I think we will see this year in terms of the use of the return on real investment.”
2. Feelings and evaluation
The startups of artificial intelligence brings wild assessments, but the question is whether they have been in a bubble.
The investors “are mainly betting on the future cash flow of a company.” I am benefiting from it. “
Srivastava referred to Anysphere, which makes the coding assistant index, and was in conversations to collect financing to evaluate approximately $ 10 billion earlier this month, after reaching $ 100 million of annual repeated revenues within 12 months, Bloomberg said. Techcrunch stated that Codeium coding, providing financing, rated $ 2.85 billion after it reached $ 40 million in ARR, according to Techcrunch.
At the nominal value, these enormous assessments appear, but Srivastava says it is believed to be reasonable in the context of the adventurous scene just a few years ago.
“In 2021, companies, during all this madness, as you know, a million dollars from ARR, and the collection of one billion dollars. Think about these artificial intelligence companies, all of which have a lot of revenues,” he said.
He jokingly said that the assessments – to some extent – are calculated on “feelings”, but he believed that they are based on real growth potential. “As you know, it is possible that we are in adopting 0.1 percent of the artificial intelligence in the institution. So we have a thousand × the bullish direction there.”
For companies that have a few or non -revenues, talents may be the value scale.
A few investors told that they heard, for their amazement, that the companies that are obtaining startups for Amnesty International for a strategic advantage that they appreciated on the basis of “for every engineer”.

3. Here’s at least a new job we will see soon
Regardless of the rapid engineers and a new group besieged by the “AI heads” in companies, many are still wondering about the “new jobs” that this technological transformation will achieve.
Since artificial intelligence facilitates coding, and “VIBE-Code”, we must expect to see a new wave of highly standing “product engineers”, “these are individuals familiar with product management, a role that usually oversees new products from thinking to launch and software engineering, which deal with technical details of new products.
4. Governance is a pain point
Artificial Intelligence Governance is still a mysterious term.
“There is a little confusion of governance and organization,” said Navina Singh, founder and director of the AI platform for intelligence, said.
Singhi told that she determines three questions:
- Do you have a handle or an understanding of risks?
- How do you already reduce the danger of these technologies?
- How do you invest in future investments for possible policy changes-not only at the company level, but at the government level?
The most misleading opinion companies is that governance will lead to their dissolution in adopting artificial intelligence. Credo data showed the opposite. “We find that companies get a better investment return,” she said.
Dataiku Florian Douteteau’s CEO has noticed similar concern about governance in a “executive field trip” occupied by the company for CEOs of its customer base in September 2024. The company has also achieved the most important concerns and published by Amnesty International in a survey. Governance ranked high on the list by 94 % of about 500 executives included in the survey, saying they are suspected that employees secretly use artificial intelligence tools without official approval.
5. More people are looking for a warning to shrink
Silicon Valley leaders from Khosla to Sam Al -Tamman expressed their concerns that artificial intelligence will stimulate the contraction. Those fears echoed a handful of those present at Humanx.
To be clear, the United States is still suffering from inflation with the consumer price index, which rises about 2.8 % during the duodenal period ending in February 2025, according to the US Labor Statistics Office. However, technological transformations are often associated with shrinkage, as they enhance productivity and low production costs.
“There is no denial that artificial intelligence -based techniques are developing quickly and adopted by people and institutions,” said Steve Berg, partner at Lytical Ventures. “There are also inflationary effects that occur, which compensate for the contraction of technology, but what happens when a side or another becomes dominant?”
