The hour
The Texas triangle, one floor up.
AITX runs the technical AI community across the Texas triangle — monthly meetups, hackathons and dinners for the engineers, founders and researchers building on frontier tooling rather than talking about it.
Their rooms are in Austin and Houston. This hour is the first of them in San Antonio, on the floor DEVSA keeps for exactly this.
Texas keeps being described as an AI hub in the aggregate — the capital that landed, the companies that moved. AITX is the part of that which is a room with people in it, and the difference between a region with startups and a region with an ecosystem is whether those people ever meet.
