It's Always Sunny Inside a Generative AI Conference

Dave Rogenmoser, the chief executive of Jasper, said he didn't think many people would show up to his generative AI conference. It was all planned sort of last-minute, and the event was somehow scheduled for Valentine's Day. Surely people would rather be with their loved ones than in a conference hall along San Francisco's Embarcadero, even if the views of the bay just out the windows were jaw-slackening. But Jasper's "GenAI" event sold out. More than 1,200 people registered for the event, and by the time the lanyard crowd moseyed over from the coffee bar to the stage this past Tuesday, it was standing room only.
