Building AI for the Long Term | World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2026

AI is driving a multitrillion-dollar infrastructure buildout, with a race to expand chip production, build data centres and increase energy capacity. As the boom demands more capital, technological considerations are giving way to economic ones.

How do we ensure that this extraordinary capital allocation leads to durability, inclusion and long-term value?

Speakers: Sarah Friar, Michael Intrator, Jessica Lessin, Peng Xiao, Rob Goldstein
