ODSC AI West brings practical AI training, technical workshops and industry discussions to the San Francisco Bay Area on October 27–29, 2026.
ODSC AI West 2026 takes place October 27–29 at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport in Burlingame, California. The conference combines technical AI education with discussions about how organizations put models and agents into production. Although the event is promoted as San Francisco, its hotel venue is in the airport corridor south of the city.
The program is aimed at data scientists, machine learning engineers, developers and people moving into AI roles. Workshops and training sessions sit alongside keynote talks, while the co-located AI X Leadership Summit addresses business adoption and organizational decisions. Topics on the announced program include coding agents, agent reliability, physical AI and the economics of deploying intelligent systems.
Confirmed keynote speakers include Peter Norvig, Nouha Dziri, Deepak Pathak, Michael I. Jordan and Thomas Dohmke. Their sessions bring together perspectives from research, robotics, developer tools and enterprise adoption. The speaker lineup provides the latest session descriptions and affiliations.
Passes provide different levels of access, so attendees should compare the registration options before choosing workshops or leadership sessions. The organizer’s attendee FAQ says in-person sessions will not be livestreamed; virtual programming and recordings have separate access conditions. A virtual offering should therefore not be treated as a complete stream of the on-site conference.
The venue address is 1333 Old Bayshore Highway, Burlingame, CA 94010. Use the official venue guide for hotel booking and airport transport information. Central San Francisco attractions require a separate trip from the hotel; travelers should allow for that when planning evening meetings or sightseeing.
