About this event
On August 10th in Chicago, we’re bringing together people thinking seriously about how AI is changing communication.
This event will be hosted by Jeff Pulver.
One idea has started to stand out.
A vCon, or virtualized conversation, is a structured, portable record of a conversation. Not just a transcript or a recording, but something systems can actually use.
That matters more than most people realize.
Since the launch of ChatGPT in 2022, how we ask questions, how we get answers, and how business operates has already shifted. But the way we handle conversations themselves has not kept up.
Most conversations still disappear.
Or get reduced to notes, summaries, or memory.
This session is about what happens when that changes.
Who should attend
This is for people who are:
- Building AI or communication products
- Running customer-facing organizations
- Thinking about compliance, data, and trust
- Curious about where this is heading next
You don’t need to be an expert in vCon.
You do need to care about how communication is evolving.
What to expect
This will be a working session.
You’ll meet people who are:
- Building with vCon
- Exploring how to apply it
- Trying to understand what it means for their business
The goal is simple:
To leave with a clearer understanding of what’s changing—and what to do about it.
