OpenAI’s Alexander Embiricos is coming to TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 — days after the launch of Dots
techcrunch ·
OpenAI product lead Alexander Embiricos is scheduled to speak at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 in San Francisco, taking place from October 13 to 15. His appearance comes shortly after the company launched Dots, a new always-on personal AI agent designed to operate autonomously. Unlike traditional chatbots, Dots utilizes cloud computers to connect with daily applications and pursue goals in the background. During his session titled "What Comes After the Chatbot?", Embiricos will discuss the strategic vision behind these agents and their future trajectory. The conversation will also address critical concerns regarding user privacy, trust, and the extent of control humans should cede to autonomous systems. Attendees can register for the event at Moscone West, where over 250 tech leaders will participate across multiple industry stages. This gathering aims to facilitate connections among thousands of founders, investors, and operators within the startup ecosystem.
