About the Summit

This is AlphaPersuade, and it will be better at persuasion than any human.
— Aza Raskin

Join us once again for a day of groundbreaking research conducted by our coalition’s global teams, transformational keynotes by leading minds who are investigating AI’s persuasive power, and a plenary roundtable reunion of our inaugural keynote speakers to discuss what has changed in the world of AI and Persuasion since they first spoke to us in 2024.

Building on the innovative gathering of the first AlphaPersuade Summit, Beall Applied Innovation and the RhetAI Coalition invite you to connect with experts from across industry, academia, government, and not-for-profits who are working together to address AIs increasingly nuanced ability to persuade human behavior. In an intimate setting that provides opportunity to interact with top-in-class AI professionals, you will have opportunity to discuss with our researchers the results of the RhetAI/CHT research challenges, review our Annual Report, and find partners to develop solutions that ensures a ethically-persuasive generative artificial intelligence.
