From Code to Cognition: Programming Languages, Foundation Models & AI at Scale

oin Guido van Rossum, Thomas Wolf, and Euro Beinat for a rare, cross-layer conversation spanning the full AI stack — from the languages we write, to the models we train, to the systems that operate in the real world.

Guido van Rossum
Creator of Python, the programming language that underpins modern software development and much of today’s AI ecosystem. His work fundamentally reshaped how developers write, scale, and think about code.

Thomas Wolf
Co-founder of Hugging Face, the company that put open-source AI and foundation models at the centre of global innovation. A leading force behind the democratisation of machine learning.

Euro Beinat
AI leader at Prosus, building and deploying large-scale AI systems across a global portfolio of companies. Operating at the intersection of advanced research and real-world impact at scale.
